For me it should be packaged in the default XE but it should stay as separate as possible
from the rest, i.e. it should be possible to have a working platform without the
annotations feature. This is true for almost everything but for technical reason we cannot
always do it.
If we can keep it separate and use skin extensions for ex rather the having to modify
existing templates, etc we should probably do that.

Hi Jerome,

Actually that's a longer refactor, to actually make the Annotations part

UI / skin, instead of having this integration done in js, after the pages

rendered. That's if we make it a core default feature.
But isn't that what we are discussing right now, making it a core feature?
For me, as soon as we distribute annotations together with XE, their
should be not a single line of JavaScript in wiki documents.
(But that does not mean you need to rewrite everything so that more comes
with the rendered DOM and less is injected/manipulated in JS - though I
agree it would be nicer if the annotations would work even when there
would be no JavaScript :) Hi
Vincent, all

I'll close the vote for XWIKI-4775 asap, and commit it since it's due a
long
time now.
I shouldn't need more than 2 days, but how would we want the
annotations
integrated in the platform?
Right now they're built as an extension, with some jars to deploy on
the
server
and a .xar to install the default annotations application.
Annotations JS and CSS should be moved to web/standard/ as filesystem
extensions/resources (as are the other "core" UI features), not be
contained in the XAR.
