This could be an interesting way to select media (images, video/audio,
documents) in xwiki:
http://www.simile-widgets.org/runway/
This widget lets you display images in a rich
interactive visualization
similar to that of Apple iTunes known as Cover Flow. It is a Flash-based
implementation ... The Flash widget can fire events to update the web page's
Javascript. .... The web page's Javascript can change the Flash widget on
the fly. Documentation<http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/wiki/Runway>
Mailing List <http://groups.google.com/group/simile-widgets> (for
technical support, etc.)
Code<http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/source/browse/#svn/runway/t…
source, BSD license)...
I think it would be useful in the anchor/link wizard in the wysiwyg editor,
lending an itunes style album-cover-flipping style interface to process of
link and image. selection in xwiki. It would be great if we could render
semi-readable scaled-down thumbnails of existing xwiki documents in the
cover-flow browser.
Yet another GSOC project... though I bet the basic interface to 'runway' is
pretty trivial in xwiki ... (e.g. of similar complexity and
interface-ability is the youtube chromeless player:
http://nielsmayer.com/xwiki/bin/view/Todo/YoutubeChromelessPlayer then again
... I can't figure out why my example doesn't work in IE, yet fine in
safari&firefox -- probably because having a menagerie-a-trois of languages
to deal with by adding flash to the picture always leads to trouble...)

My flash player, though i think I updated it recently, is already too
old for this!
no too fond of such.

I am against this, since flash is a proprietary, unstandardized format.
I'd rather we don't add another requirement in order to be able to use
XWiki.
