Dear Dev Team, My company is certainly looking forward to the complete transition to 2.0 syntax. We much prefer it over 1.0 syntax and using a mixture of both has caused headaches in the past, so +1 to that goal. Thanks for all the work you do, Josh Eastburn SAES Pure Gas, Inc. San Luis Obispo, CA, USA Guillaume Lerouge <guillaume(a)xwiki.com> Sent by: users-bounces(a)xwiki.org 06/15/2009 08:44 AM Please respond to XWiki Users <users(a)xwiki.org> To XWiki Users <users(a)xwiki.org>rg>, XWiki Developers <devs(a)xwiki.org> cc Subject [xwiki-users] [Proposal] XWiki Enterprise 2.0 Roadmap Hi XWiki Devs & Users, here's the current proposal for the XWiki Enterprise 2.0 roadmap. Please give us your feedback about it and tell us whether you think we missed anything important. Please note that this roadmap covers the next 3 months of development work. Improvements not included here will be discussed at the beginning of the next roadmap (in September 2009). Shout if you think we forgot something ;-) The list of tasks is divided in 3 parts: tasks we have already planned to have people working on, tasks that we would like to complete during the course of the release but have nobody planning to work on yet and tasks that will have to be postponed until the next release cycle. *Tasks with people already planned to work on:* - Rendering (Thomas) - Fix bugs - Make sure the XWiki 2.0 syntax doesn't move any more once XE 2.0 is out - WYSIWYG editor (Marius, Anca) - Fix bugs - Implement search in the link insertion dialog box - Improve the macro insertion dialog box - CAPTCHA integration (Jérôme) - Clustering (Thomas) - Write a clustering component based on XWiki events - Activity Stream integration (JV) - Watchlist (JV) - Rewrite the watchlist feature based on the activity stream - Make the watchlist work in XEM - Macros (Asiri) - Write the velocity macro bridge - Write a number of velocity macros - UI Improvements (Caty) - Blog - User Profile - Architectural Improvements (Vincent) *Tasks with nobody planned to work on as of today:* - Migrate all XWiki Enterprise pages to use the XWiki 2.0 syntax (Collective effort?) - Rewrite XWiki's Lucene Search backend (Sergiu?) - Improve XWiki's default skin (Laurent?) *Tasks that will have to be postponed to the next release cycle:* - Application Manager - Document Type Manager - Invitation Manager The current roadmap dates are the following: - XE 2.0 M1: June 22 - XE 2.0 M2: July 13 - XE 2.0 M3: August 3 - XE 2.0 RC: August 17 - XE 2.0: August 31 Thanks in advance for your feedback.

I'll help but if others can help that would be great. Implement categories in Macros What about externalizing the WYSIWYG editor so that: 1) it can be used outside of XWiki 2) we can get help developing it (for ex for Safari, Opera, Chrome, etc support) Note that I view this as overhaul of the notifications system in XWiki. It would great to have a grand view of the whole domain and what needs to be done, even if the only thing we implement in that version is the rewrite of the watchlist using the Activity Stream. Ah yes, see above. This is key. We really need someone to work on this. Why is there a question mark? Didn't we get commitment from Laurent to work on it? I agree it's best to focus on consolidating (fixing + improving) existing feature rather than add new ones since we want a strong and stable 2.0. IMO the main focus of 2.0 remains the consolidation of the new rendering/new wysiwyg so that Syntax 2.0 is the default and can be used in all situations easily. +1 Thanks -Vincent

The points I would focus on : - of course, syntax 2.0 and wysiwyg - Lucene search : I agree it's a key feature, and people do not find it very intuitive as it is ... Why not merging "tags" into lucene search bringing possibility to refine a search on a tags list ? It would give greater value to tags IMO - better browser support. From the ones I use (IE6 which is corporate :-(, firefox and chrome) only firefox can be used reliably for wysiwyg, it's a big constraint. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/-Proposal--XWiki-Enterprise-2.0-Roadmap-tp3081005p3085… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
