[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Roadmap for 8.4.x till end of the year

Hi devs, After discussing with XWiki SAS internally here’s a list of items that’s interesting to fix for XWiki SAS (in that order, from top to bottom) from now till end of the year (i.e. 8.4.x). The goal is to try to take as many issues as possible from this list, starting from top to bottom. Process I propose: * For each dev, take an issue that is the closest possible from the top and work on it. Put your name on http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Roadmaps/ and assign yourself to the jira issue. * Once done, repeat. * The names put below are just indicative and should be considered as ideas of devs who could work on them. Ordered list (top is most important): * Periodic crashes with ClassLoader related locking issue - XWIKI-13792 - Thomas * Admins should be able to decide the order in which apps are displayed in the Applications Panel - XWIKI-13075 - Guillaume * When I'm in full mode I would like to save directly without returning to normal Edit Mode - CKEDITOR-112 - Marius? * Make the WYSIWYG admin UI display configuration for all available WYSIWYG editors - XWIKI-13654 - Marius? * Sort Recommended Extensions by Ratings when no search query is specified - XWIKI-13779 - Thomas * When inserting large images while editing, it should all fit, the user should not need to scroll to the right to see it all. - CKEDITOR-108 - Marius? * Clarify the Hamburger Menu - XE-1582 - Guillaume * Provide an option in the AWM wizard that creates a Template Provider for the app - XWIKI-13761 - Marius? * Solr search UI is still very slow - XWIKI-13192 - Thomas * Provide a way to filter templates in the creation step - XWIKI-13762 - Guillaume * Simplify creation of New link to new page in CKEditor - CKEDITOR-116 - Marius? * Cannot upgrade the CKEditor extension - XE-1570 - Guillaume? * Cannot delete document with many large attachments - XWIKI-8910 - Thomas * For regular users, "Data" level is confusing in the Pages tree for an application created with App Within Minutes - XWIKI-13360 - Guillaume? * Customizing the PDF export CSS could cause a NPE - XWIKI-13457 - Vincent * The parent-child relationship of a page is not updated during a move - XWIKI-13493 - Marius? * Add Check List of actions to perform to create first content in XWiki with links to video tutorials - (Missing JIRA) - Caty? * --Attachments are not copied from a Template Provider - XWIKI-13524 - Edy-- * Extension Manager add extension search should suggest only compatible versions - XWIKI-9920 - Thomas? * Hard to understand which is the default value for Profile's Preferences entries (edit/view mode) - XWIKI-7715 - Guillaume * Adding a new overriding template resulted in the creation of 190 XWikiSkinFileOverrideClass - XWIKI-13179 - Thomas? * Demo Content Inside XE - (Missing JIRA) - Caty? * Admin UI to allow disabling tours on a given wiki or for all wikis - TOUR-50 - Guillaume? * Bad Image Scaling Quality - XWIKI-7623 - Guillaume? * See to which groups a user belongs to - XWIKI-1901 - Guillaume? * Make a tool to evaluate the status of the hierarchy before running the nested spaces migrator - NPMIG-46 - Guillaume * Hide "XWiki" space from Navigation Tree - (Missing JIRA) - ? * Reorder the "Create a Page" menu steps in a more coherent way - XE-1588 - Marius? * Allow resetting changes found by the "Compute change" feature of EM - XWIKI-13747 - Thomas * Admin tools doesn't work anymore on 8.0+.
