XEM home
page becomes the workspaces app home page. We update
manager.xwiki.org to align it with the fact that it now boasts the
workspaces features.
Does it means that it is similar to now, except that the workspaces
module
is loaded and welcome you ?
If you do not use it, and access the wiki manager, is there any issue, or
could you administer a farm ?
The Wiki Manager would still be there but not initially visible. All the
modules which allow running a farm would still be there.
+0,5 on this one then. I am just worried that using the same distribution
for something different could cause some confusion for those upgrading.

Here'd my +1
