I think we also need to have a XE XAR fully converted to 2.0 syntax. Thomas could be in charge but he'll need help from others. I'll help but if others can help that would be great. > - WYSIWYG editor (Marius, Anca) > - Fix bugs > - Implement search in the link insertion dialog box > - Improve the macro insertion dialog box 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) > - CAPTCHA integration (Jérôme) > - Clustering (Thomas) > - Write a clustering component based on XWiki events > - Activity Stream integration (JV) 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. > - 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?) Ah yes, see above. > - Rewrite XWiki's Lucene Search backend (Sergiu?) This is key. We really need someone to work on this. > - Improve XWiki's default skin (Laurent?) Why is there a question mark?

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. > 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 +1 Thanks -Vincent > Thanks in advance for your feedback. > > Guillaume, on behalf of the XWiki Development Team _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
