Note that this extension is NOT developed by the XWiki dev team, it’s done by some individual and is in no way supported by the XWiki dev team. Also note that you don’t need this extension at all to implement a simple workflow in XWiki. It can be done easily with the notion of XClass/XObjects natively but you’d need to spend 1-2 days to understand these concepts. Actually these concepts are the main reason people use XWiki and they allow you to go so much further than any other wiki can go. If you’re serious and want to build something for the long run, I highly recommend that you spend 2-3 days to get familiar with XWiki before making an impacting change for your company. Some tutorials on XClass/XObjects: - http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/DataModel - http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial Generally speaking you’ll find technical resources here: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/WebHome Yes that’s a good point. We always need to improve documentation. In this case however, it’s beyond our control since this is an extension contributed by some individual and is in no way managed by the XWiki dev team. What could help would be to have a Workflow extension developed/supported by the XWiki dev team. If enough people request this, this could be considered indeed. BTW most people switch from Mediawiki to XWiki because they’re quickly limited by Mediawiki on the “enterprise” aspects: fine-grained permissions, flat page hierarchy, LDAP integration, Office integration, etc. Thanks -Vincent
