Hi,
As part of the Curriki development, since Curriki is growing big (more
than 60000 users), the XWiki.XWikiAllGroup is not scalable and this can
lead to bad things.
I've proposed a patch to make XWiki.XWikiAllGroup implicit. We have
tested it and this seems to work well (see
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/CURRIKI-738 for the patch).
The only issue I see is the fact that once you have activated this, the
counter of number of users for the group all group in the administration
and the ability to edit the group makes no sense.
Finally the adding the the AllGroup in registration has not yet been
deactivated which would be necessary to make the registration not be
impacted by the number of users.
The Curriki team would like to see this patch make it in the XWiki Core.
WDYT ?
But this is a bit too dangerous, so it should be applied starting with
2.0 the earliest.
