Re: [xwiki-devs] Recent Activity dashboard + default pages + clicking on XWikiGuest

Hey, Wild idea... could we skip those events ? It feels weird that before logging in the first time you have "No recent activity", and once you log-in (or refresh the page probably) you have like 12 technical pages created by some Admin or by guest... In my opinion, we could keep the feed empty until users do their first modifications.

Now from an implementation point of view, that's another story, it might not be easy to do it nicely. Maybe we could add yet-another saveDocument() that skips sending AS events (or is there one already ?).

Bottom line is that I would not feel confident explaining someone how those activities appeared out from the blue on first login/refresh. WDYT ? Jerome.
