Hi Erin,

This may be silly, but would it be clearer if the XEclipse versioning

v1.0 somehow suggests to me that it should be able to run on XWiki

explicit in the versioning.. maybe?
Sounds like a good idea to me...
Let's see what others think...
I like to start new modules at 1.0. Sounds logical since they're new.
The release cycle for XEclipse doesn't have to be the same as XE and
thus their versions shouldn't be aligned. For example we're going to
release 1.0M2 of XEclipse in about one week (right Asiri/
Tharindu? :)). This doesn't match XWiki 1.1RC2 nor does it match
XWiki 1.2M1 and it would be a pity to have to wait for 1.2M1 before
releasing it.
What we could do is have a version like 1.0-1.1 (<xeclipse>-<XE>) but
that sounds way way too complex.
I think I prefer simply documenting it on xwiki.org and inside
XEclipse itself. It should check the XE version it's connecting to
and tell the user if it's not compatible with it IMO.
WDYT?
Thanks
