Hi, Here are some general directions that Sergiu and I are proposing for the XE 1.3 roadmap. 3 domains:
1) Work on automated testing. Examples: - add more selenium tests - start evaluating using VMs for setting up different test environments (Oracle + IE, XEM + MySQL, etc) 2) Clean up Examples: - Extract skins into separate modules - Factor skin templates all in one place - Make it easy for someone to create a new skin - Code cleanup for more Javadoc in APIs 3) Improved performances Examples: - Run XE with a profiler and find bottlenecks - Reduce number of HTTP requests done by the browser (about 50 right now) - Reduce number of database calls NOTE: In addition to this Sergiu is proposing to work on the Interface Extensions design and I'm going to work on the new rendering engine. These are not planned in the 1.3 roadmap. They'll be done on branches and only integrated when ready. So this means that 1.3 will be mostly a "cleanup" release with no or little new features but more bug fixes and cleaning things. In term of dates here's the proposal: 25 Jan: 1.3 M1 15 Feb: 1.3M2 29 Feb: 1.3 RC1 14 Mar: 1.3 Final Let me know what you think. Thanks -Vincent _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
