Ok I removed them.
Thought about something, is that main problem is if someone wants to
install it manually, ie without the Extension Manager, he would have to
retrieve the transitive dependencies "by hand".
But as my target is XE 4.X, I'm wondering if it's useful anyway to allow
users installing such extension manually, as it's faaar more easy using EM.

since
they're in
maven.xwiki.org ;)
Thanks

Back to this, since I didn't see that recommendation, at that time I
created 3 extension pages for the 3 modules (and not only for UI):
(UI)
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/MailArchive+Application
(mail api)
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/MailArchive+Mail+Module
(mail archive api)
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/MailArchive+Module
As the last 2 do not really need to be materialized in
extensions.xwiki.org,
and lead to more maintenance from my side, and more confusion on users
side, I would like to remove these 2 pages from
extensions.xwiki.org,
and
move some of their content to the Design page
related to the MailArchive
Application.
Since those 2 were already published, from users point of view it means 2
extensions will "disappear" from the catalog.
So I wanted to check with you if it's not a bad practice to do that, and
if
I can safely remove those 2 extensions (according
to the fact, also, that
the whole thing is tagged as "BETA").
There is no official practice on this yet. IMO you can do this is you think
it's the cleaner like this.
It's not going to break anything for users unless there is other extensions
depending of these extensions in which case they won't be able to install
them of course.
Thanks,
Jeremie
