[xwiki-users] Deny Public registration Wiki Workspaces

by Chris Ellis

I really love the look and use of the xwiki products, but the lack of documentation and broken functionality is very frustrating. After finally getting smtp authorisation working in Enterprize I find the email which is generated is not forming URLs properly - grrr. So now I'm back to exploring Workspaces milestone 1.2 and I have found that setting Public Registration to Allow or Deny makes no difference - registration is just a matter of supplying a name and email address and you're in. No admin approval required. This is not acceptable for an admin setup intended for staff only. Can anyone explain to me how this might be fixed please?

[xwiki-users] [Proposal] Governance for xwiki.org

by Vincent Massol

Hi everyone (devs and users), While we have a clear governance for write access to our source repository (http://dev.xwiki.org), we're missing a clear governance for xwiki.org. The idea is to address mainly the following 2 questions: 1) who "owns" it and thus "controls" (or rather provides direction for) its content 2) can it be used for business advertising (support, paid packages, consulting services) Bit of History about XWiki SAS ======================== - XWiki SAS (http://xwiki.com) is the company founded by Ludovic Dubost the creator of XWiki (I'm the CTO of XWiki SAS in addition to being a committer here). - Most of the active contributors are also employed and paid by XWiki SAS to develop the XWiki software. Today that's -- 12.5 committers (developers) -- 1 open source product manager (see http://markmail.org/thread/ggaaw4u6yyci4oan for its definition) -- 1 designer -- 1 tester/technical writer - XWiki SAS sells services around the open source software, see http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Services/ - XWiki SAS truly believes and understands open source, see http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/About/Values -- I also wrote a blog post on this some time back: http://massol.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/XWikiSASAndOpenSource - XWiki SAS has promised "not to do evil" ;), see its manifesto at http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/About/Manifesto - XWiki SAS is paying for the servers and maintenance of xwiki.org, myxwiki.org, the maven repo, the svn repo, the hudson build serversn the free JUG farm, and more Issue at hand =========== XWiki SAS would like to generate more revenue to be able to increase the development pace of the XWiki software. We'd like to fund even more the development of XWiki, so that it becomes an even better product. We've asked you what you'd like to see in the future in XWiki and you've answered on this survey result: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/Features+Survey+Results We'd like to implement those features as fast as possible. For this we need to ensure that users interested in commercial services find easily the way to http://xwiki.com, even when they arrive on xwiki.org. This is true for XWiki SAS's services but also for any company willing to offer services around the XWiki open source project. There's no magic. Developers need to be paid when they work full time on some project. We need a commercial ecosystem around XWiki for it to progress as quickly as its competitors (the collaboration market). We need to allow for commercial companies the ability to generate revenue from their work on the XWiki open source project. However we also want to continue ensuring that all the XWiki development is done in open source, under a LGPL license. Governance Proposal ================= 1) xwiki.org is controlled by the XWiki committers. This means that important changes brought to it should be discussed/vote on the list, using the same practices as for code commits 2) xwiki.org stays open in edit mode to all external contributors (and XWiki committers continue to monitor it to remove spam, etc) 3) we agree to start with 3 zones where companies can advertise their commercial offers on top of the XWiki open source product: -- On the download page (for business packages, subscriptions, hosting) -- On the support page (for services: support, consulting) -- (still to be defined) Possibly on a "Products" tab in the new horizontal navigation. The idea would be to do as jboss.org is doing. Projects are open source and community and Products are commercial 4) the company offerings are listed by their amount of contributions to the XWiki open source project. The company that contributes most (XWiki SAS today) gets the best spots (top of the list, bigger space) 5) Companies who want to be listed should provide some proof of their contributions to the XWiki open source project 6) XWiki SAS gets some acknowledgment for paying for the xwiki.org server/maintenance of it. Probably somewhere in the footer of the site or on side panel somewhere 7) xwiki.org should always remain a site for the xwiki open source community Conclusion ========= We want to stress that this proposal is not about XWiki SAS making a commercial takeover of the xwiki.org site. It's about recognizing that if the XWiki open source software progresses quickly today, it's thanks to contributors but also for a very large proportion to companies paying developers to work on it, either directly (like XWiki SAS or other companies that have developers contributing) or indirectly (by paying for example XWiki SAS or other companies to work on specific features). It's also about recognizing that XWiki SAS is happy to see other companies willing to contribute to the progress of the XWiki open source project and thus to provide a place for these companies to be visible too. I hope that all our contributors but also users of the XWiki Open Source software will find this proposal acceptable and I welcome any feedback on it. Thanks -Vincent Massol Hat 1: XWiki SAS CTO Hat 2: XWiki committer

[xwiki-users] Removing comments, attachments, etc from certain pages

by Josh D

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to remove the comments, attachments, history and information tabs from certain pages. Perhaps just by inserting some css or javascript on the pages where I don't want these things to show. Also, I was hoping to reduce the font size of the "Create New Post" text in the blog (I'm using the toucan skin if that helps). Which file would I look in do to this? Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Josh _________________________________________________________________ Find out what’s new with your friends Download the new Windows Live Messenger http://download.live.com/

[xwiki-users] Login Style

by Ben Stewart

Greetings Folks, I have setup XEM with application etc to deploy multiple wiki's and it is working a treat. Only one problem though. Most of our wiki instances are for private access only. So under RIGHTS I have checked "Prevent unregistered users from viewing pages, regardless of the page or space rights" which works exactly how I would expect it too except for one thing, the style does not cary from the wiki onto the login page. I am only new to the xwiki world, if somebody could point me in the right direction (documentation etc) that would be great. Thanks Ben

[xwiki-users] Auto numbered sections

by PERINAUD Christophe

Hello all, I saw in the xwiki.org documentation that to have auto numbered sections, i have to modify xwikivars.vm. Is there a way to do the same but from the browser by editing the skin for example ? Else do i have to add this code in each document ? #set ($context.tocNumbered = true) #set ($context.tocData = $tdoc.getTOC(2, 6, true)) Regards, Christophe Périnaud Windows Server 2003 SP2 in a VMWare instance Oracle 10g Java 1.6.0_12 Xwiki 2.0.3 from the pack Jetty/HSQL -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail is intended only for the addressee named above.

[xwiki-users] New blog entry overwrites old

by Aplamon

I noticed that if I create a new blog entry with the same title as an existing entry in that same category the old one will be wiped out. Is this expected behavior or a bug?
