Just to clarify what I meant (since I found it not clear after re-

- One way to participate to the XWiki projects is to sponsor the
development of some features. This has a double advantage: it helps
the XWiki project and in addition if what is developed goes back in
the community you get "free" support for it in future releases.
The other way is to participate directly to the xwiki development here
by making a design proposal, gather a discussion around your idea,
generate an agreement, create some patches implementing the idea and
get some committers to commit them for you (basically this is exactly
what XWiki SAS would do if you contacted them to help you with this
development).
Thanks

PS: For full disclosure, I am XWiki SAS CTO. I am also a xwiki
committer. Hence the reason I present the 2 sides of the story and the
2 possibilities that exist ;)
Hi Sergiu,
Thanks for your answer,
I have to implement this for an important customer... I thought it
was possible (and I know it won't be easy)
But do know how I can do this ? The general steps and principles ?
Do I have to create a plugin ?
The best solution IMO is to contact XWiki SAS (http://xwiki.com) and
ask them if they could do custom development for you (ie subcontract
to them). If not then you'll need to read the source code
since this is not
done and there's no documentation on this. Note that what you do may
also be made obsolete later on when we work on this here (unless you
participate and propose a design here, make it accepted and develop
it collaboratively with the xwiki developers).
Thanks
