Re: [xwiki-users] Roadmap for XE 1.4

Hi, Thanks for these numerous suggestions. Richard, could you please add them to the http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewWysiwygEditorBasedOnGwtpage so that we can take them into account while working on the editor's new version ? There's indeed a lot to do and to think about in terms of how to display code & wiki syntax in the WYSIWYG editor. Agreed. Which is why we're working on its specification in order to start its implementation ASAP. User feedback during this process would be more than welcome. Yep, I remember some talking about this. I'm not sure this is the most relevant way to do it. I'd rather see an email archive application that would work this way -> you send an email to a given address (say emailarchive(a)yourxwikiserver.com) . The email is converted into a wiki page with an unique identifier based on its subject, sender, date etc. The page metadata uses the email info to fill in the author & creation date. A check would probably be needed for protected page (add the email only if the sender's email adresses matches the one of an user who has rights on that page). An index page lists all the email and allows filtering & searching them. A macro allows to quote a mail in a page (could be done with #includeTopic( MailArchive.UniqueEmailIdentifier) actually) Anyway more discussions would be needed to decide whether that application would be worth making it into XE 1.4 (though I'd be glad to have it). Here is some additional feedback I gathered : - *Migration* - Make the migration between 2 versions of XWiki even easier than it is now (some bugs remain, making upgrades a chore on many occasions). - *Applications* - Remove unfinished applications (such as the calendar & the photo album) from the default distribution and put them as XARs on XWiki.org instead - *Translations* - Replace all text in the default wiki with $msg.get() calls and update the translation file to include EN & FR translations for all of them. - *Administration* - Add a select box to the language selection field - Add explanations next to each field to explain what they do - Groups : add a button "Add a member to this group" on group pages (below the list of group members) - *Space Administration* - Add the ability to customize the color of a space easily in Toucan - Add the possibility to use the Panel Wizard for a space - *Autosuggest* - Generalize the autosuggest feature to most input fields on the wiki I'll try to post some more once I've received it.
