This should be done using the existing XWiki comment mechanism, if possible. We tend to make applications as reusable as possible, so that we don't have to duplicate functionality between different features. > 2) Add description relating to photos Yes, this is a must. > 3) Image cropping feature to select what portion need to remain in > the album etc. > 4) Scaling photos as user wish These will require a Java part as well, since currently there's no public API for this. An image processing plugin would be good for other purposes as well. You should start with this, so that it can be used by other parts of XWiki (the attachment section, the WYSIWYG editor). > 5) Tagging feature around photos (Ajax based) This could also be done using (and enhancing) the existing tagging feature. > So i think in point of Xwiki it would better to have those features too. > So i am glad to know what you think on this. > I agree with these features. I'm sure that there are many other things that could be done, but the important thing is to have an application that works well with few features at the beginning, and which is easy to extend afterwards, meaning that after the base is polished, you can add features one by one, with little effort. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
