Hi Vincent,

I had a discussion with Catalin about this issue and according to him XWiki does not have a notion of a space description. How this situation to be handled ?

1. Froget about space description in xeclipse ?

Nope :)

When you create a space you actually create a WebHome document. So the space "description" is actually the WebHome content.

WDYT?

2. Call it initial HomePage content and add this description to space's home page at the back-end xmlrpc. <-- bad since we should not be modifying xmlrpc interface for every little problem.

Any ideas ?

Yes, see above.

Thanks

Hi All,

XECLIPSE-21 complains that space description set on the space creation page (on xeclipse) is not added to the space's home page. But the actual problem is that addSpace() xmlrpc intentionally ignores space description . I think catalin worked on this and he has mentioned about this on the method comments. Anyway, i'm attaching a patch with this mail that would fix it. Catalin, is there a particular reason to ignore the space description ?

Thanks.
