Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki Concerto

Hi Allen, Long answer: XWiki Concerto did not keep up with XE(XWiki Enterprise)'s version upgrades. Right now, XWoot (the XWiki Concerto prototype) is made up of 2 main components (web applications): 1. XWoot standalone webapp(http://host:port/xwootApp) which contains the actual prototype with all the back-end functionalities (synchronization algorithms, p2p network, etc.) and a JSP web UI for configuring and managing it. 2. Bundled XE (1.8.1) installation ready to use with the prototype. Together with this comes a small xwiki application that allows control of XWoot directly from XE trough a panel, but this is completely optional. Because of this separation and because XWoot uses XML-RPC to connect to the configured XE, you should be able to configure the XWoot webapp to use any other XWiki installation. The bundled XE is provided mainly for packaging reasons. AFAIK, no major changes were made to the XWiki XML-RPC API, so the prototype should work with the latest versions of XWiki. If you really want to upgrade the bundled XE, it should just be a matter of updating the maven pom.xml files to the latest versions of all XE's packages, but that could get a bit painful if you don't know what goes where. For the future, the plan is to merge the XWoot webapp with XE and have an XWiki plug-in that takes care of the back-end and exposes XWoot management to the Velocity API so that an XWiki application could be used to replace the current JSP web UI. This means that the current implementation would have to be refactored into XWiki components. Short answer: Yes, just configure XWoot to use the xmlrpc endpoint of another XWiki installation.
