Hi XWikiers,

thanks for the feedback :-)

Here's the updated tasklist (I've probably added too much stuff, we might
need to remove some parts in the course of the roadmap):

*Tasks with people already planned to work on:*

   - Rendering (Thomas)
      - Fix bugs
      - Make sure the XWiki 2.0 syntax doesn't move any more once XE 2.0 is
      out
      - Documentation
      - If possible: i18n
      - If possible: externalize the rendering module
   - WYSIWYG editor (Marius, Anca)
      - Fix bugs
      - Implement search in the link insertion dialog box
      - Improve the macro insertion dialog box
      -
      - i18n
      - Documentation (User/Admin/Dev Guide)
      - Implement categories/libraries for Macros
      - I'm not sure we want to make the WYSIWYG work in Safari & Opera by
      ourselves. Based on customer & user feedback we might need to focus on
      making it work in IE8 first.
      - If possible: externalize the WYSIWYG editor -> that would make it
      easier for people from outside the XWiki community to add support for
      Safari, Chrome & Opera
   - CAPTCHA integration (Jérôme)
   - Clustering (Thomas)
      - Write a clustering component based on XWiki events
   - Overhaul of the notifications system in XWiki (JV)
      - Activity Stream integration
   - 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
   - Improve XWiki's default skin (Laurent)
      - If possible: make sure the skin works fine in IE8
   - Architectural Improvements (Vincent)
   - Migrate all XWiki Enterprise pages to use the XWiki 2.0 syntax
   (Collective effort)

*Tasks with nobody planned to work on as of today:*

   - Rewrite XWiki's Lucene Search backend (Sergiu?)

*Tasks that will have to be postponed to the next release cycle:*

   - Application Manager
   - Document Type Manager
   - Invitation Manager

*Ideas to keep in mind for later:*

   - Mobile skin
   - Embedded SMTP server to handle email-to-wiki-page conversions / imports
   - Some kind of workflow thing -> actually as Vincent pointed it out above
   I'm not sure we'll ever build a full-fledged workflow application in XWiki
   but there are 2 things that can be done:
      - Integrate XWiki with an external workflow engine such as Bonita
      - Make it possible to define a set of global rules for queries at the
      wiki level (something similar to what we're going to do to support hidden
      docs, having 2 APIs depending on whether we want to display technical
      documents or not) but more discussion is needed on that topic and to be
      honest I don't fully grasp it yet :-)

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

Keep the feedback coming ;-)

Guillaume
