The dev guides do a fine job explaining the use of groovy and velocity
code snippets. They also explain how to develop applications and
plugins by creating classes. However they don't do much to explain the
creation of macros; that or I'm failing to find this.
I greatly prefer using macros over copy/paste coding snippets into each
article. I managed to find this lovely article about creating Radeox
macros in xwiki:
http://hritcu.wordpress.com/2007/03/13/xwiki-plugins-tips-and-tricks/
but I'm struggling to find info on creating/adding what I believe are
referred to as Velocity Macros (#macroName(var1, var2...)). I assume
help has been requested on this repeatedly, but I seem to again be
having poor luck in my keyword searches. Looking at trends in macro
submissions, Velocity macros seem to be preferable in most cases, are
they? Does each have strengths and weaknesses?
I'd love to extend the online documentation, but I'm still learning. So
without experience or guidance, much of what I'd write would be little
more than educated guesses.
Thanks,

Hi everyone,
If some are you are interesting in testing out the new Toucan skin
(the skin on xwiki.org) on your install you can download a preview here
http://tinyurl.com/yts6gr
Just unzip it in your skins/ directory next to the albatross/ directory.
Please report any issue you have here:
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XSTOUCAN-1
Thanks
-Vincent
Good day, community,
Are general velocity tools objects (particullary I'm interestin in MathTool)
accessible from xwiki templates ?
If yes - where names are described ? [standard names, such as 'math' for
math does not work].
P.S. (Curiosly, I can't find initialization of velocity context in code,
but from other side velocity-tools jar is bundled with distribution. )

Hi,
it's Martin. I don't know why in this strange country is first name written as second in full name, but i think it is some dark ages communistic and bureaucratic superstition or something like that. We even walk on hands, and write with legs! Don't ask how we eat.
Well my former question targets how safe is to use 1.3 milestones for only internal but quite "should be working" deployment. I would like to avoid repairing corrupted referential integrity or thing like that, or making clean db reinstall, but I'd like to use and test 1.3 builds.

Hello
Will 1.3 strem have same database schema as 1.2?
For the moment yes it's not planned to change it but even if it's changed we now have an automated migration system in place so that'll be transparent (barring bugs of course ;)) for the end users...
Thanks

The XWiki development team is pleased to announce the release of the
XWiki Swizzle Plugin 1.0.
Go grab it at http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/SwizzlePlugin
This plugin allows using Swizzle (http://swizzle.codehaus.org) from a
XWiki page. For example this allows to query a JIRA instance and
display all sort of information in a XWiki page about it.
Some usage ideas:
1) List all issues in a given release
2) List all JIRA projects
3) Create a dashboard
4) List most voted on issues
etc
Thanks
