Projects currently in sandbox I see good candidates for a direct promotion as "projects/" under the new contrib repo : - applications/xwiki-application-faq/ - applications/xwiki-application-meetingmanager/ - applications/xwiki-application-multipageexport/ - applications/xwiki-application-qa/ - applications/xwiki-application-recruitmentmanager/ - applications/xwiki-macro-todo/ - xwiki-application-ratings/ + plugins/ratings - plugins/collection - plugins/excel Projects I see should go directly in "retired/" : - agilepm/ - com.xpn.xwiki.wikimodel/ (obsoleted by the new rendering engine) - formeditor/ - jcrstore/ - org.xwiki.*/ (obsoleted by the XEclipse TLP) - xunit/ <http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/sandbox/com.xpn.xwiki.wikimodel/> - xwiki-clients/ - xwiki-core-rest/ (obsolete, REST is now committed in core) Jerome. > 2) Create a "XWiki Contribs" JIRA project with projects from "sandbox" > and "projects" as components.
