Hi,
After brainstorming with Thomas, Sergiu and Fabio we came to the
following idea:
Proposal
=======
* Don't have top level extension git repositories and instead put all
extensions/modules in the top level platform repository
* This means releasing all modules/extensions
under the *same* version
(the platform version)]
+1 tell me what to do.
Caleb
^^^^^^^^
This is the important part!
Pros
====
* Much simpler release process
* Much simpler JIRA organization (1 project instead of 50 or so)
* Much simpler for the user: simpler to log a new issue in jira + they'll
know
what version of a module they're using vs having to guess that XE 3.0
uses the Lucene plugin v 1.45) and for contributors
Directory org
==========
platform/
|_ modules/
|_ xwiki-platform-search/
|_ xwiki-platform-search-lucene/
|_ xwiki-platform-search-application/
|_ xwiki-platform-url/
|_ xwiki-platform-skin-colibri/
|_ xwiki-platform-wysiwyg/
|_ ...
|_ tools/
|_ distribution/
Details:
* Modules contains a flat list of directories, each directory
representing a
"feature". Everything corresponding to a feature is under
that feature's directory, independently of the underlying technologies used
(be it plugins, components, xar, etc)
* Maven modules previously located in
platform/web are moved in
platform/modules. Except platform/web/standard which goes
in
platform/distribution. wysiwyg modules go in xwiki-platform-wysiwyg/ (we
need to decide if gwt-dom and gwt-user modules go in there too or if we want
to have a xwiki-platform-gwt module - Marius?)
Migration details
=============
* Change the current org in git
* Move several jira projects to retired
* Modify platform jira project to have one jira component per feature (ie
per
platform/modules module). Note that since the old xwiki-core contains
lots of stuff I propose to have one jira components for each "feature" it
contains. For example for anything related to the model it would go in the
"model" jira component. For things going in the user management it would go
in a "user and group" component, etc. I'll make a proposal for the full
list
of jira components later on if this vote is passed.
* Future: decide if we keep extensions.xwiki.org
and if so what we put
in there (maybe just user extensions and move platform
features in
platform.xwiki.org).
Here's my +1 (meaning I'll help perform this move)
Thanks
-Vincent
