Hi everyone,
We're getting close to the end of the 4.x cycle (only one more release,
4.5,
which should be out at the end of January) and thus we need to start
thinking about 5.x
(see
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/VersioningAndReleasePractices)
As a reminder here are our past themes:
* 3.x: Theme 1: "Building Apps and Distributing them" (This means for
example that the Extension Manager in progress is a key element of XE 3.x.
It also means making it easier to create applications in XE.), Theme 2:
"Polishing"
* 4.x: Theme 1 (top priority): Ease of use, Theme
2: Quality
Internally at XWiki SAS we've had a brainstorming meeting with everyone
to
discuss what could be the main themes for XWiki 5.x
The result is the following:
Theme: Speed and Simplicity
-----------------------------------------
Mission:
Improve XWiki's usage for new and regular users by improving Usability
and
Usage Speed
in order to make XWiki simpler and faster both
from a pure performance
point of view
and from are user interface point of view.
Technical details:
- Individual Feature Improvement from a Usability perspective including
speed of
access (real time updates, commenting in activity stream)
- General Usability Improvements on XE and XEM
for simplicity
- Technical Rewrite of certain features (activity stream) for
performance or
architecture reasons
- General Performance Improvement of XWiki (page
loading, rendering time)
- Bug Fixing in general
