I fully agree with you :) Beyond congratulations, let me tell you that, now, when I say the word "XWiki" when I propose professional solutions, people don't oppose against it anymore and it even tends to bring some credibility to my propositions... What does it mean? Is it XWiki itself gaining notoriety or is it Wiki solutions generally which are becoming more and more common? I will let you guess...
Anyway, your announcement is good news and it means we can go on investing time and money into XWiki because this is a project with a future (and a past also ;)) Congratulations guys and go on because I'm interested in the new v2.0 and all the new stuff and I hope I will be able to participate a bit more than my recent busy months:) regards Pascal 2009/9/16 [Ricardo Rodriguez] Your EPEC Network ICT Team < webmas...@environmentalchange.net> > Congratulations!
