Hi devs,
Due to some critical bugs and missing features, the release was
postponed for a long period.
Still the development process is way ahead of what was intended for
XWord 1.0
This is how the old roadmap looked like:
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/MicrosoftOfficeAddin#HFirstversi…
As you can see XWord 1.0 was intended to be an export to wiki tool and
only XWord 1.1 should enable editing wiki pages.
Sorry for not keeping you up to date on the mailing list.
This is the new roadmap for XWord:
- 1.0 M1
- Wiki Explorer - done
- Attachment Upload - done
- Attachment Download - done
- Export word documents - done
- Edit/Save wiki pages - done
- Save pages with user specified syntax - done
- Protect essential pages from editing - done
- Export using filtered html - done
- Export with non-filtered html - buggy
- Deployment and infrastructure - problematic because it uses ClickOnce.
- 1.0 M2 - 2-3 weeks from M1
- Solve as many reported bugs
- Improve html filters
- Introduce the XML-RPC communication mode
- Basic macro support(prevent the user from editing macro generated
html)
- 1.0 RC1 - 1-2 weeks from M2
- Bug fixing
- Stable and ergonomic UI
- Remove the sever package and rely only on XML-RPC
- 1.0 Final - 1-2
- Rock solid UI
- Production quality html output and wiki syntax conversion.
Please tell me your opinion.
Thanks,
Florin
