Hi xwikiers,
Eduard hard the idea of dynamically rename the files names of the
packages we publish on http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Download/
page and use the refactoring to move XE features to a new platform
flavor as a good opportunity for this change.
In more details the proposal is the following:
* name "xwiki-demo-9.5.zip" or "xwiki-9.5.zip" the standard
jetty/hsqldb package (the one which let you choose the flavor you want
to install)
* name "xwiki-9.5.war" the standard war package
* name "xwiki-classic-9.5.xip" the offline package containing XWiki
Classic flavor
WDYT ? Other ideas ?
+1 with a preference for "xwiki-demo-9.5.zip" over "xwiki-9.5.zip" to
make it more clear it's not a production oriented package.

Sounds good to me. I prefer the format: xwiki-<flavor
name>-<version>.<extension>
Thanks

New subject: [xwiki-devs] [PROPOSAL] Rename downloadable packages while releasing them
The idea boils down to removing technical details
("platform-distribution-war", "platform-distribution-flavor-xip",
"platform-distribution-jetty-hsqldb") from the published artifact and
simplifying it to:
"xwiki-<optional classifier>-<version>.<extension>"
Here's my +1.
Thanks,
Eduard

I'm not a big fan of "demo", though, people will get confused.

WDYM Sergiu? Confusing about what? Demo is what we use on the download page already, see
for example
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Download/DownloadVersion/?projectVersio…
We used to call it “standalone” in the past.
We could revert to that instead of demo if we think that demo is not good.
xwiki-standalone-9.5.zip
Thanks

My only fear is that naming it "xwiki-9.5.zip" might make it look like
the recommended package while it's quite the opposite in practice.

Just putting it out there:
* "xwiki-local-9.5.zip"
* "xwiki-server-9.5.war" / "xwiki-hosted-9.5.war"
Though I`m not sure we really need to go into these details, since the file
extension says enough IMO and the download page will clarify this as well.
Not to mention that an admin should know already the difference and that
we`re not really addressing end-users nor even XWiki admin users here, but
more sysadmins. Desktop users will surely go for the zip, and that`s our
goal anyway.
I`d keep it simple (i.e. "xwiki-9.5.zip").
Thanks,
Eduard
