So I’ve read this thread and here’s my POV:
* "Base XWiki Flavor” -1 (same reason as Thomas)
* “Classic XWiki Flavor” -1 (same reason as Edy, it means there’s a non classic and
*better* one and we don’t have one so it doesn’t make sense)
* “Raw XWiki Flavor” -1 (not enough meaning IMO and a bit deprecatory)
* “Starter XWiki Flavor” -1 (would mean there’s another flavor which isn’t the case)
* "Default XWiki Flavor” +1
* "Generic XWiki Flavor” +1
* “Standard XWiki Flavor” +1 (makes the most sense IMO)
* "XWiki Flavor”. Here it’s hard to understand that “XWiki” actually means “developed
by the XWiki project” and it would work only if other flavors don’t have “XWiki” in the
name. This is why I’m -1 ATM for it. IMO it’s not easy enough to differentiate and
understand what it means compared to other listed flavors such “Procedure Flavor” from
XWiki SAS or “Demo Flavor” from contrib.
Thanks

Hi devs,
I'm getting closer to finish with the hard work around new platform
flavor which is going to replace XE.
Need to decide what user will see in the Flavor picker when installed XWiki now.
As a reminder we decided that this would be a generic flavor, not tied
to any specific use case (so forget about "Knwonledge Base Flavor"
:)).
Here is a few ideas gathered in previous mails:
* "XWiki Flavor"
* "Default XWiki Flavor"
* "Generic XWiki Flavor"
* "Base XWiki Flavor"
"Generic" is probably a way too technical term.
"Base" would be misleading IMO since it's not really a base flavor.
Its primary goal is not to be used as a dependency (of course it's
fine to have it as dependency if you just want to add pre installed
extensions to the default flavor). It's a -1 for me.
Frankly I would simply go for "XWiki Flavor". I know, it's not going
to be the only flavor for XWiki but it's obvious when you actually see
severals of those in the picker anyway and I find it nicer than
"Default XWiki Flavor" which basically means the same thing since the
XWiki core project does not plan to provide any other flavor. I'm also
fine with "Default XWiki Favor" if others think it's a better name.
WDYT ?
