Then we still have a disagreement :) Right now (and I'd like to keep it this way) all wikis on the xwiki.org domain are for *real*. They are not test platforms for people to see how xwiki works and have some fun trying it. They have real usages (documentation of the xwiki software). We have one exception: this is playground.xwiki.org which is there for people to test and play around. Thus my proposal is: 1) have a new wiki (news.xwiki.org, same as we have jira.xwiki.org, svn.xwiki.org and maven.xwiki.org) which will be our news "portal". Note: It will also listen to the xwiki.org Blog feed. 2) have a Watch space in playground.xwiki.org for people to try out Watch. But I'm -1 to have a watch playground on watch.xwiki.org since I don't want to blur the lines and I want to make it very clear that demo/ testing is on playground.xwiki.org and the rest is for real.
