Yes. I meant at least two things :
* Activate annotations as a default setting
* Have annotations displayed even when JavaScript is not available
(that means moving code from the annotation application to the
platform - but that's another story)
And a third item, a bit more ambitious (so maybe for 2.7 ?) :
* Fusion annotations with comments (at least in the U. Probably in the
storage (read: XClass) by default too - to make the UI easier to
write). Comments would then become annotations without a context.
That would already be great.

Could you be more specific re annotations? On 10/20/2010 09:31 AM, Vincent Massol wrote:
I would like to add "annotations" to this list (especially making them
work w/o JS and and activated by default) Hi,
I'd like to propose that we have a short XE 2.6 release. The
rationale is that we've been developing lots of new features in the
past releases and I think it's time to stabilize what we have. By
stabilize I mean: - fix bugs - homogenize UI - clean up stuff
(refactoring, etc)
I don't quite agree with only one quick release, but instead I'd propose
to sprint for a winter 3.0 release. I believe that since 2.0 we've added
(or started) enough new features to make up for a major release.
So, I'd propose monthly releases until we get a polished version ready
to be promoted as 3.0. This means that the number of new features should
be kept to a minimum, trying to finish all the stuff that was already
started: gadgets, portlets (a bit difficult, so this is not a hard
requirement), new UIs (administration, multipage export, standard forms,
maybe rights), xwiki/2.1 syntax, extension manager. I'm OK to work on that if we agree we want
it.
For 2.6?
Thanks
