Hello,
So the idea is not to simply the existing Right UI but to add another UI. And I guess you’ll implement it as wiki pages.
The idea is to modify the current UI by adding my own, and hiding the exiting, with the option of toggling between them. If knowing this you still suggest "application-simplerights", I have nothing against it. Thanks, Paul On Wed, Oct 21, 2015 at 1:13 PM, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi,
Some users consider the rights manager to be a bit to complex, so the purpose of this extension is to offer an alternative (simplified, even though it will have less options), while still keeping access to the more advanced (i.e. the default ui). While the concept for the new ui is still subjected to change, it will probably be basted on dropdown menus with predefined options like (view, view edit and comment etc.).
Regarding the name, we will stick to "Rights UI Simplifier" and for the repo, unless someone proposes a better prefix than application, we will stick to "application-rightsui-simplifier". Sorry about the private jira reference.

I don’t think we need UI in the app name since that’s implied already. And I don’t think we need the “ier” suffix since it’s about providing a new UI and not making modifications to the existing one.
WDYT?
Thanks -Vincent
Thanks, Paul

Hello devs,
I would like a repository on https://github.com/xwiki-contrib for the extension I'm working on. The purpose of this is to make a simplified UI for the rights manager, based on a client project (The jira issue for this would be https://jira.xwikisas.com/browse/MUT-8 ).
Errr… You’re posting on a public mailing list and you’re referencing some company-private and protected JIRA issue… :)
The name of the repo should be something on the lines of "application-rightsui-simplifier", however I feel that this is not a very appropriate name, since is not necessary an application, but a ui modifier of the rights manager, so any input on the name would be very much appreciated.
What is your extension doing exactly? How does it plug into XWiki?
I would also like a jira project for this app.
I can create this for you once we define the proper name.
Thanks -Vincent
