Hi devs, The new XWiki Rendering top level project depends on Platform and Platform depends on it, we thus have a circular dependency issue when releasing. We had a discussion with Thomas and Caleb on IRC this morning and we're proposing the following: * Create a XWiki Commons top level project * Goal: generic modules independent of xwiki, ie they could be reused on any other project not related to wikis at all * When: before XWiki Platform 3.0M3 release. Need 2-3 days I think. * Who: I can do the work (would be great to get some help though) * Wiki: http://commons.xwiki.org * JIRA: XCOMMONS * svn: http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/commons * Versioning strategy: start at 3.0-SNAPSHOT, release 3.0 final before platform 3.0 final, give it its own version life thereafter (3.1, 3.2, etc) * Groupid: org.xwiki.commons * Artifact id: xwiki-commons-* (instead of xwiki-core-*) * The following modules will be moved now: - xwiki-xml (the script service will stay in platform) - xwiki-component-api - xwiki-component-default - xwiki-component-observation - xwiki-configuration-api - xwiki-container-api (need to remove dep on xwiki-url for now) - xwiki-context - xwiki-observation-* - xwiki-properties - xwiki-cache-* - xwiki-velocity (script service needs to stay in platform, dependency on container-servlet needs to be removed or stay in platform/ - xwiki-management * The following will be moved at a later time: - xwiki-component-multi (keep the wiki/user/space impls in platform but move the rest) - xwiki-configuration-default (default impl for properties only should be moved) - xwiki-classloader (when we separate the part that is related to xwiki) - xwiki-action (not ready to be moved) - xwiki-url-* (after we introduce xwiki-resources, right now depends on xwiki-model) * Please correct me if I've forgotten some modules or forgotten dependencies I haven't seen. The idea is that we should move at the very minimum right now all dependencies used by XWiki Rendering. Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
