Hi, Thanks guys for this release :) Just deployed it and second experience of "distribution wizard" is becoming really nice. I have some minor comments though: - on first screen, it detected I had to move to UI 4.3.M2, but by mistake I chose "Continue" without installing it. Maybe it's me, or maybe the proposal to install it was not "flashy" enough. Usually when you have a dialog with buttons as "skip" or "continue", you don't expect having something to do inside the dialog itself. But again, maybe it's only me missing some sleep ;-) - anyway it was proposed on next screen ("Extensions") so it was nice. But maybe this screen is missing a "Back" button. Maybe then also, the need to have 2 distinct steps in the wizard is not so evident (for now ?). - on second screen, when upgrading extensions, nice progress bar is displayed, and the install logs automatically scroll to the bottom (last logs). But when computing install plan (just before), there's also a nice progress bar, but logs stick to the top. When manually scrolling back, display is moved back to the top as soon as some log is added - once distribution wizard is closed, maybe it could be interesting to provide possibility to check what happened during last execution of distribution wizard ? (logs, actions performed ...). Maybe it would be nice to even get the history (and not just last execution) from an admin UI. Or to re-launch the wizard without having to restart the wiki (maybe it's feasible, I didn't really check). I must say that I didn't check in JIRA if some of these comments are already tracked ... :/ But I must say, comparing to previous upgrades, that importing the new default UI Xar was really simple and it was really nice, so thanks for that guys :) Best regards, Jeremie 2012/11/13 Eduard Moraru <[email protected]>

See also http://markmail.org/thread/fyk47aq4y3pew7mn for a previous discussion on the same subject.
