Beloved XWiki users,
The XWiki Development Team has decided to stop maintaining XWiki Office and XWiki Eclipse.
The truth is that these 2 projects have been dormant for a long time now since there were
no active developers on them. Thus we decided to move them to XWiki Contrib where any
contributor can participate (you just need to ask to get access there), in the hope that
someone will continue working on them.
For more details on what XWiki Contrib is check
http://contrib.xwiki.org
The two projects can now be found at:
*
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XWiki+Eclipse
*
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XWiki+Office
I personally think that both XEclipse and XOffice are great integrations of XWiki in third
party tools. The XWiki Dev Team is just lacking resources and is spread too thin to
continue to work on them in a quality manner.
On the upside, this means we're now continuing our focus on XWiki Enterprise and XWiki
Enterprise Manager and very soon we even hope to drop the XWiki Enterprise Manager
distribution in order to have only XWiki Enterprise and everything else will just be
extensions (
http://extensions.xwiki.org) that can be installed in it (including Workspaces
which is the basis for the current XWiki Enterprise Manager distribution).
If you have any questions feel free to ask here!
Thanks
-Vincent Massol on behalf of the XWiki Development Team
