Maybe the devzone should appear more clearly because when you go on xwiki.org for the first time, you see first "codezone" which doesn't contain tutorials (remark: in my IE6, the codezone snippet panels appears far below the text, in fact below the right column and I spent sometime before scrolling down to see them)... I had to wander a bit before discovering the great features of xwiki :)
Moreover, "development zone" and "code zone" is a bit ambiguous

Yes Code Zone should be named differently but I haven't found a better name yet. It's a place where you can 2 things:

* Extensions not found in the distribution
* Code Snippets
* Documentation on Macros/Plugins/Applications that are bundled with the distribution

Initially I wanted to call it the Reference Zone for documentation reference but it's not that. We want people to contribute macros/snippets/plugins/etc in there. Then I thought about splitting it into 2:

- a doc reference zone
- a contrib zone
but that's a lot of work and we still want to use the same mechanisms for both zones.

If someone has a better name, please tell me.

Thanks

Anyway, guys, great project and architecture... gives me great ideas :)

Writing java code not not necessary unless developing a pluign.
You may want to look at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial

The is the best place to start with velocity code in wiki pages to build applications to extend xwiki.

This article explains how to create simple applications inside XWiki
using xwiki development capabilies (objects and classes).
