Re: [xwiki-devs] [Contrib] xwiki-application-mailarchive

Hello, Thanks :) As I was a bit fed-up with the Java component part,

I worked a little on nice things like UI look&feel, and revamped the forum view, for me at heart of the app navigation: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/MailArchiveApplication#HTopics

The display adapts to the Color Theme in use, here Mint. I plan to add an admin option to display or not the statistics button, because I think some might want to restrict the user statistics viewing to admins only ... "Edit" is displayed only to persons with admin rights, or to the message author, "Reply" is displayed only for persons with edit rights (anyway reply is not implemented so it's only UI for now). I also plan, if one day I implement the syntax parser for email text/plain content, to by default hide quotes (with a showHide icon) as Gmail does. @Vincent: I hijacked your avatar from Nabble, I hope you don't mind ;-) (of course if you do mind I'll remove that asap).
