Hi,

Note that this should not really be done as an extension, since a product issue already exists on it and previous iterations have been done/discussed. AFAIR the use case that we have is mostly to allow users working on old versions on XWiki to actually use the extension. We don't want them to upgrade XWiki just to get this functionality.

Thanks, Clément

Hi devs,

Anca and I would like to create a new contrib extension named "application-reference-displayer".

The idea is quite simple : have a new block in the "information" tab of a wiki document that shows the technical document reference (or page reference is the wiki version fits).

I'll take care of creating the GH repository / JIRA project myself.

Thanks, Clément

Nothing stops from doing both, mentioning the extensions is not needed from version x.x. If adding it to the core is better from design and performance perspective then the extension is a better approach. Now the implementation would better match the investigation.

Yes, but where do you draw the line?

The same argument goes for any new feature. Do we handle new features as part of the product or always as installable extensions?

For this case, as mentioned, we already had the issue and previous investigation on it, so it only made sense to expect it to be part of the product... hence my remark.

Let's see what others think...

Thanks, Eduard
