Yes, I am aware that this extension is not supported

Thing is, I lack the skills to fix the problems myself, so the only thing I
can do is report them and hope that someone does fix the issues. But when
times passes by...and the bugs aren't fixed...the app remains unuseful...
So here's me again, hoping that things get fixed. Or otherwise I would like
to suggest that the XWiki teams *removes* the application from the XWiki
Extensions. There's no use in keeping extensions in that list when the
application is broken (which it is right now).
Actually what we would like to do is to have a rating system on
extensions.xwiki.org to
let people rate extensions and to have the rating in the livetable so that you can also
sort by rating.
This should normally lead to having non-working or suboptimal extensions go down. It also
allows any user to see the rating for an extension they choose.
It would be like any known app store: app store, google play, etc.
Now regarding the Diagram app, you’re being unfair. I’ve taken the time to install it and
it worked well: I could create a diagram and save it.
So it’s not because one use case doesn’t work (AFIU it’s an IE issue
only:
http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XADIAGRAM-7 ) that the whole app should be thrown away,
discarding all the work done by whoever published it. That’s not very respectful of the
extension’s creators...
What can and should be done is mention on the page of that extension what doesn’t work so
that users can know about it. I’ve now added such a section listing all open issues:
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Diagram+Application#HK…
Thanks
