Hi,
Maybe not in the next build, but:
* more wysiwyg page layout tools (instead of hand coding css) would
be good
to enable users to rapidly and quickly knock up good looking pages,
I think this could be solved with the new 2.0 macros we're planning to
add:
- http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2965
- http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2963
- http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2966
- http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1689
WDYT?
* also better table creating/editing (resizing, etc)
and formatting
(grid
lines hidden/shown) would also be good.
ok
* facility to email in content (text, images, rich text, word/open
docs,
etc) to automatically create wiki pages would be good (think can do in
Confluence?)
Yes that would be handy. Actually I thought that we had done this at
some point but maybe it was only done on some specific instance and
not in the core.
* some sort of automated work flow facility
This would need to be discussed more since this is too generic and the
needs might be various. Right now there are 2 solutions for simple
workflows:
- use spaces with permissions and some velocity to move pages from one
space to another
- add a Status object to pages and use HQL (or XWQL) to perform
queries based on the status
* some sort of dashboard/home page mashups for users
to provide user
customised access to wiki content
You mean ability to insert widgets? Meaning that it's the user that
chooses the widgets he'd like to see.
Something like http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Gadgets/WebHome
maybe?
Now you mention "wiki content". Do you have ideas about content
widgets you'd like to see?
Thanks

Subject: [xwiki-users] [Proposal] XWiki Enterprise 2.0 Roadmap
Hi XWiki Devs & Users,
here's the current proposal for the XWiki Enterprise 2.0 roadmap.
Please
give us your feedback about it and tell us whether you think we missed
anything important. Please note that this roadmap covers the next 3
months
of development work. Improvements not included here will be
discussed at the
beginning of the next roadmap (in September 2009).
Shout if you think we forgot something ;-)
The list of tasks is divided in 3 parts: tasks we have already
planned to
have people working on, tasks that we would like to complete during
the
course of the release but have nobody planning to work on yet and
tasks that
will have to be postponed until the next release cycle.
*Tasks with people already planned to work on:*
- Rendering (Thomas)
- Fix bugs
- Make sure the XWiki 2.0 syntax doesn't move any more once XE
2.0 is
out
- WYSIWYG editor (Marius, Anca)
- Fix bugs
- Implement search in the link insertion dialog box
- Improve the macro insertion dialog box
- CAPTCHA integration (Jérôme)
- Clustering (Thomas)
- Write a clustering component based on XWiki events
- Activity Stream integration (JV)
- Watchlist (JV)
- Rewrite the watchlist feature based on the activity stream
- Make the watchlist work in XEM
- Macros (Asiri)
- Write the velocity macro bridge
- Write a number of velocity macros
- UI Improvements (Caty)
- Blog
- User Profile
- Architectural Improvements (Vincent)
*Tasks with nobody planned to work on as of today:*
- Migrate all XWiki Enterprise pages to use the XWiki 2.0 syntax
(Collective effort?)
- Rewrite XWiki's Lucene Search backend (Sergiu?)
- Improve XWiki's default skin (Laurent?)
*Tasks that will have to be postponed to the next release cycle:*
