Hi devs, In the Roadmap proposal I've sent for XWiki 5.2 some days ago, there's this time: " * Have Workspace by default in XE + improved home page - Caty + Guillaume Delhumeau. FTR Guillaume is not a committer yet but he's going to work full time on XWiki development and especially on UI aspects from now on. Welcome aboard Guillaume, we need you! :) " Denis told me he didn't know about the proposal of having Workspaces integrated in the default XAR. Thus I'm sending this email to ensure we all agree about this. The rationale is: * It would be nice that when our users download XWiki (standalone version or install the default XAR) they get to see the power of XWiki. One of the very important differentiator of XWiki vs other wikis/solutions is our multi-tenancy feature and most of people downloading and installing XWiki don't see it. * XEM/Wiki Manager are lacking polishing because the committers mostly polish the default which doesn't include those. The UIs of XEM/Wiki Manager need polishing. Having them in default will ensure that we take them into account and make them first class citizens when we develop. Caty started working on the home page/UI improvements required to integrate this by default: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/MultiWiki Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent
