Hi Brandon,

  Clarification:
 If I read right, the manager tool is installed as a separate wiki? 
It is, however since the development is modular you could also  
transform an existing wiki into a XEM wiki by:
* adding virtual=1 in xwiki.cfg + generally speaking configure your  
wiki as is explained on the virtualization page on xwiki.org
* installing the app manager and wiki manager plugins
* import the XEM XAR

Is that correct Thomas? Maybe we should document this too in the  
release notes?

WDYT?

Thanks

 1Released

 The XWiki development team is pleased to announce the release of XWiki
 Enterprise Manager (XEM) 1.0 Milestone 1.

 XEM is a special wiki (based on XWiki Enterprise) used to manage a  
 farm
 of sub-wikis. It has an interface to create new sub-wikis from
 templates, delete wikis, view all created wikis, etc. Basically it's
 meant to implement the feature previously known as "Virtual Wikis",  
 but
 as a product and with a UI.

 Features in 1.0M1:

      * XEM install page (XemManager.Install):
            o Update XWikiPreferences with all application translations
 pages bundled with XEM
            o Create the default wiki template based on XE
      * All Wiki Manager 1.0 Milestone 1 features:
            o Create new empty wiki
            o Create new wiki from template wiki
            o Create new wiki from XAR file
      * All Application Manager 1.0 Milestone 1 features:
            o Create new application descriptor
            o Delete application descriptor
            o Export application based on XWiki Package internal plugin
            o Import application based on XWiki Package internal plugin
            o Support applications dependencies
            o Children wikis can reference documents located in the
 template wiki, thus preventing content duplication and easing
 maintenance
            o Support translations documents
