No but I will try to make some, some time soon.
Hi Jerome,

better to know what's the plan concerning pretty names :)
Hi Vincent,
I'm very much in favor of an overhaul of all spaces names for platform
(and ideally also for XE and XEM too).
I'm not going to vote on the rule you propose just yet ; but I have a
couple of (open) questions :
* Quid of space pretty names (space titles) ? - I personally firmly
think we need them
Yep, this is orthogonal to this proposal. * Can documents exists outside spaces ? (I
don't know if the model
module takes this in consideration or not)
No * How do we fix the doc.name vs. doc.title
problem in terms of user
experience? (pointers : looking at what Wordpress does for example,
and introduce the notion of permalink) - this applies to space name
vs. space title as well should we decide to have pretty space titles.
This is also orthogonal to this proposal too.
BTW Last week I've thrown together a little
module[1] for my own use,
that for a "business" XClass offers a customizable page creation UI
with flexible rules for how to generate the page name. I'll try to
spend some times describing in more details the use cases behind this
; I think this can be interesting as input for the more general
discussion of how we want to structure our UI modules in the future,
and what good practices we want to promote for tiers
extensions/applications.
Sounds interesting. Any screenshot to show? :)
I think all your questions/ideas are good but they are independent of this proposal IMO.
They can be added on top.
Thanks
-Vincent

we could introduce an application for it in xwiki-platform-core). It could simply contain
