Hi!
In one way, I very much appreciate the relatively high frequency of updates done by the
XWIKI crew. You are doing a great job, making sure that XWIKI is alive and kicking and
always improving.
The downside to this, is all the work needed to be done when upgrading. So, I don't do
that very often. The basic part of installation/migration works very well, but when it
comes to content, the upgrade procedure is messy, as I see it. It is a hassle to have to
pick and choose between various parts when importing and exported XAR.
I would very much suggest planning for a future where the parts that are XWIKI software
are clearly separated from the parts where customers typically do modifications.
Especially items like users and groups. It should be possible to have a more separated
export/import so that you GET new versions of e.g. the admin pages, while still KEEPING
your setup of users, groups, etc., without having to click on a million of checkboxes in
the import.
