[xwiki-users] Announcing the XWiki Concerto research project

by Stéphane Laurière

Hi everyone, I don't think this news was shared with the community yet: XPertNet's team (http://www.xwiki.com) has been selected by the French Research Agency together with a set of partners for conducting a research project for adding P2P and mobility capabilities to XWiki. This project is called "XWiki Concerto". The objectives are the following: - design a fault tolerant P2P architecture for XWiki supporting large scale collaborative editing on a set of peers that synchronize their changes regularly using reconciliation algorithms, - support mobility work: off-line capabilities and UI dedicated to mobile handsets. This project will allow to design a P2P XWiki farm that will scale at much lower costs than classical solutions and will let XWiki users work offline and from handsets with limited capabilities. The set of partners are INRIA, ENST, Mandriva and EISTI. The project's web site is http://concerto.xwiki.com. INRIA teams include ECOO (Environments for COOperation) [1] and ATLAS [2]. ECOO team has expertise in reconciliation techniques, ATLAS has expertise in P2P databases. ENST team focuses on the mobility aspects. EISTI is bringing security expertise. XPertNet, Mandriva and INRIA will experiment with the solutions respectively in the context of the XWiki.com farm, the Mandriva Club wiki and the OW2 wiki. [1] http://www.loria.fr/equipes/ecoo/english/index.html [2] http://www.sciences.univ-nantes.fr/lina/ATLAS/ We already delivered a first version of specifications and use cases but it's in French: http://concerto.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/download/Main/L2/xwikiconcerto-l2.pdf We're currently designing a set of complementary XWiki APIs. I'll send some proposals to the devs list in the next days. Your feedback will be most welcome. There will be many interesting synergies with XEclipse off-line work of course. That'd be good also to investigate about the eRCP capabilities http://www.eclipse.org/ercp/ Cheers Stéphane -- Stéphane Laurière slauriere(a)xwiki.com XWiki http://www.xwiki.com http://concerto.xwiki.com http://nepomuk.semanticdesktop.org

[xwiki-users] Editing breaks out of frames

by Andrew Saunders

I have xwiki running within an existing frames-based system. Love them or hate them, I am unable to change the frames system. My problem is when editing with xwiki. When the edit button is selected the edit page opens in the parent window. Is the any way I can amend this? This issue only seems to occur when editing. Thanks Andrew

[xwiki-users] Live bookmark...

by V. Harikrishnan Nair

Hi again... I am asking this after a thorough search on the Internet for a solution. I got many answers but I couldn't understand how to do it. I know it is a very basic problem but I want help... I tested the Personal RSS by subscribing to a page but the link says 'Live bookmark feed failed to load' and the error says the 'URL is not valid and cannot be loaded'. I tried repeatedly to reach it in the bookmark manager but I don't know how to do it...

Re: [xwiki-users] About LDAP patch XWIKI-1079

by pentaho＠fsck.ch

> Fair question. The reason it's not been applied yet IMO is because none of the current committers are using LDAP and thus noboydy has taken the time to learn how to set up a LDAP environment and test the patch. As a side note, the JBoss Portal has a testing infrastructure for their ldap integration using OpenDS. If someone wants to get serious about integrating ldap into XWiki, that might be a good starting point. > So what would help would be if you could apply the patch on a XWiki SVN trunk version and verify it works fine and doesn't break anything existing. Reporting that in the jira issue will help a lot and then one of the committer could more easily apply the patch. Basically, things work. I have checked authentication and mapping of ldap groups to XWiki groups and will start to use this in production in a week or two. However, the comments that 'simple user' made in jira are all very valid. There are edge cases where the code isn't correct, and it definitively needs a review by someone experienced with XWiki internals. The author of the patch, Gunter Leeb, already statet this, as he had to made a lot of assumptions in the code. >From looking at the code, there's a lot of "if xwiki.internal.isTrue(), then everything should work" without else cases. For example I remember something like xwikicontext.isVirtual(), where nothing is done if the context is not virtual. So, basically, I couldn't tell you anything more than others already did. I will make a comment in jira once I had the patch running for a few weeks. Thanks, Tobias

[xwiki-users] Personal RSS plug-in

by V. Harikrishnan Nair

Hi... I had imported the PersonalRSSFeed.xar for RSS on every page. Is it necessary to add the name of the plug-in in the xwiki.plugins in the xwiki.cfg file ? Is it com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.PersonalRSSFeed.PersonalRSSFeedPlugin ?

[xwiki-users] Windows Docs Porting Issues

by kschlap

I am in the latest stable release of XWIKI and am having issues porting documents from windows docs (.xls, .doc, etc.) into the XWIKI front end. Ideally I would be able to just cut and paste, however, XWIKI doesn't like this very much. So I tried to turn the .doc's into html and paste that into the WIKI editor. This works to an extent, that being the document shows up as it should. However, I can't edit it in the WYSIWYG without destroying the formatting of the doc. Some of the docs will be posted as attachments, however, I would like to not have to do this for each doc. Is there an easy way to port the MS Office documents into the XWIKI and be able to edit it with the WYSIWYG? Also, is this issue fixed in the new beta? Finally, if this is not possible, could somebody suggest other WIKI platforms to use? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Windows-Docs-Porting-Issues-tf4697527.html#a13427820 Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Logo in the printed pages

by Vitantonio Messa

Hi all, I'm using the albatross skin: I've noticed that in the printed pages the logo that appear on the top of the pages is the original XWiki logo, even if I had already changed it (as explained on xwiki.org). I've done a modification in the print.vm file, now the correct logo is displayed. This is the section that sets the logo in my print.vm: <div id="companylogo"> <a href="$xwiki.getURL("Main.WebHome", "view")" title="Home"> #set($logoname = $xwiki.getSkinPreference("logo", "logo.png")) #set($logo = $!prefdoc.getAttachment($logoname)) #if(!$logo) #set($logourl = $xwiki.getSkinFile($logoname)) <img src="$!logourl" alt="XWiki" width="200" height="70"/> #else #set($logourl = $prefdoc.getAttachmentURL($logo.filename, "download")) <img src="$!logourl" alt="XWiki"/> #end </a> </div> Hope this coudl be useful for everyone! Vito
