Hi,

We've slipped badly for the 2.3M1 release (my fault for not monitoring

it closely enough). It was planned on the 8th of March and we're the 15th already (one week delay).

...

...

...

The other problem is that we don't have what we had imagined would go

in 2.3M1 (color theme improvement for ex). Right now there are lots of changes but nothing really user-noticeable.

...

So I'd suggest the following: * Delay by a few days in order to be able to include: - color theme improvement. Sergiu you need to tell us if that's doable

and for when.

...

- captcha on comments. Caleb, let us know if that's all done or if there's need for more testing/development.

Bonus: - Anca, will it be possible to have annotations released for 2.3M1 (ie now)? How much more time would you need?

I'll close the vote for XWIKI-4775 asap, and commit it since it's due a long time now. I shouldn't need more than 2 days, but how would we want the annotations integrated in the platform?

Right now they're built as an extension, with some jars to deploy on the server and a .xar to install the default annotations application.

I think we should: * have platform/xwiki-annotations and release it when we release the plaform * have applications/annotations and include it in the default XE XAR

The rationale is that annotations is a powerful feature and I believe it's good to have it by default for now (it would be too difficult to install it separately for now).

Why would it be difficult? we can maven magic a zip with a bunch of jars anytime and make people unpack it in their WEB-INF/lib & install the xar. I think that's reasonable complexity for such an extension.

That's what I call complex. It's too complex for a large majority of our users and it would make the annotation feature not used which is a shame. In any case I don't see any compelling reason not to bundle it by default in the default XE we distribute.

+1 again! Anca, why don't you want your awesome work to be bundled in XE by default? ;-) Guillaume

Thanks -Vincent

...

Thanks, Anca

...

When we have the extension manager implemented, we'll be able to trim

down the size of what the "core" platform and instead have the user be able to install extensions when they start their wiki for the first time or when they go to the admin page for this. But since we don't have this now I feel it's better to have annotations packaged in the platform and in the default XAR than not have it.

...

Here's my +1 to both (API in the platform and annotation XAR in default

XE).

...

Note: It would be great to have the ability to turn on/off the

annotations feature for 2.3 final.

...
