Thanks, Guillaume.
 
In retrospect, I'm sure I remember this being discussed on the list before; all please forgive my absent-minded laziness.
 
But that was, indeed, the solution; thanks!

Hi, this is absolutely normal. To get them you need to import the xar that can be found on the download page on XWiki.org. Check the version running on the farm at the bottom left, download the relevant XAR and import it. You're done!

I wanted to demo some of the nice things that v1.0 offers for some

instance which doesn't have a fixed IP address, so I created a new wiki
on xwiki.org, fitted it with the spiffy new xwiki10b1 skin, and went to
work.  To my dismay, I couldn't find any of the spiffy new user-friendly
features like the side navigation panels - in fact, I couldn't find any
panels at all, or even the wherewithal to implement them.

Is it just me, or is this a feature that I'll just have to do without?
