What is the rationale? And why link it from the admin guide? I mean why not link all the other topics then? I had put it in the admin guide because changing the skin is an admin operation and is not something to be done by users. So personally I prefer to keep admin stuff in the admin guide. Admin here doesn't mean infrastructure but administration of the wiki. for now I'm -1 till someone explains why we need to change this. Thanks -Vincent

In my opinion, this was wrong from the beginning. "Changing the skin" is an admin topic, while "Creating a new skin" is not. It's a developer topic. That's why I proposed to Raluca to "link it" from the admin guide (what I had in mind was to link it next to the explanations on how to change a skin). For me the real question is what do we want to do with the existing http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Skins, especially starting from the "Creating a skin" heading. My take would be to keep the introduction, and then link to the tutorial (that we add under DevGuide/Tutorials) Jerome.

Fair enough. I change to +1 :)

Hi Raluca, The tutorial is great, nice illustrations. For me it misses a paragraph where you explain the differences between a filesystem skin and a skin defined in a wiki page. +1 to promote it a tutorial, Jerome. On 10/26/09 9:55 AM, Raluca Stavro wrote:
