hi,
I wonder if I'm the first few outside people to try XWS milestone 1. :-)
Well, I'm evaluating the XWiki series of products for my Java User Group in
Hong Kong. XWS "looks" better than XE to me and it seems XWS allows every
user to create his/her own space of blog, wiki, photo and files, that
perfectly fit my needs. I wonder:
- could XWS provide public registration, and anonymous
(/non-logged-in) user access mode?
- could XE actually do all XWS can do and I should use XE for public
service? In fact, I feel XE has steeper learning curve than XWS. It seems XE
does not provide individual blog, photo and file spaces
- any pointer if I want to limit one user to create only one space?
- could anyone point me to where I may be able to customize the space
name and url? basically, the use of "Space_" as prefix look quite odd to me
and i would like to remove it. And if it is possible i would want to make
the url shorter. Currently, it's something like: "
http://mydomain.com/xwiki/bin/view/Space_username/"quot;, i am able to
remove the context "xwiki", and i suppose it shouldn't be difficult to
turn
Space_username to username. It's most desirable to turn bin/view to nothing
or make it a single "folder", e.g. remove "/bin" (i suppose the
action
cannot be removed.)
regarding URL, i wonder if the developers like to go to the REST-ful
direction. Some people think in REST-ful URL only resource but not action
should be put as the path. (certainly, i understand in using Struts, some
options may not be available)
Thank you very much.
