Starting from Beta2, the Panel Wizard works in Internet Explorer, too.

We'll need to add a section to the Admin docs for editing Panels (subsection to the skins, I can look at this later next week if nobody else already doing same).

Cool. Yes that would be good to do. One thing to note is that I've considered Panels to be an application so far. Thus it's documented in the Code Zone in  http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Code/PanelsApplication

I'd like to keep the documentation there (but it can certainly be improved). However we definitely need to put pointers to it in different places.

thanks for taking care of this!

In Beta1 and above, the sidebars are actually referred to as Panels (assuming you're using the xwiki10b1 skin). 
 
Before doing the following you will need to login as Administrator.
Here's the rough set of steps to do what you're looking to do:
To edit or add Panels:
1) Change your url to look something like the following:
2) You should be presented with a listing of current panels, with options to edit and add new panels.
3) NOTE: the Panel Wizard does not work for Internet Explorer.
4) Add any panels you wish to include, check first though as you may find what you want in the existing panels.  Alternatively, edit an existing panel to reflect what you wish to show.
 
To get access to what Panels are loaded (and where), click on the link Administration under the "Log out" link in the top right hand corner.
1) Select the "Skin" section.  You should most likely be using xwiki10b1's skin, as default - if not, it is the better one to use, and it uses panels which are easier to manage than raw coded menus.
2) In the "Left Panels" entry, type in the name of each Panel to show in the left hand column.  This should be in the format " Panels.MiniSearch"; seperated by a comma (eg: Panels.MiniSearch,Panels.HomePanel)
3) There is a seperate choice of showing the Left Panel, and for showing the Right Panel.  Make sure the one you wish to use has "Yes" selected (by default, the Right Panel is set to "Yes"; while the Left Panel is set to "No").
 
That's pretty much it...

Which version?  If for Beta1 or above, the panels are easy to modify.
If older, then it's a different process.

Can you help me to understand how can I add new elements to the right and left side menus? And how can I edit them?
