yes, but I don't think it's fully decided (should send a vote asap). >> >> For me, as soon as we distribute annotations together with XE, their >> should be not a single line of JavaScript in wiki documents. >> (But that does not mean you need to rewrite everything so that more comes >> with the rendered DOM and less is injected/manipulated in JS - though I >> agree it would be nicer if the annotations would work even when there >> would be no JavaScript :) > > For me it should be packaged in the default XE but it should stay as > separate as possible from the rest, i.e. it should be possible to have a > working platform without the annotations feature.

We can keep it separate using the js and css that is currently in the extensions, for the moment. But as a general strategy, if we "integrate" them in the default platform / enterprise and it gets stable enough, I don't see why they won't be properly integrated, i.e. instead of adding the "Annotations" tab shortcut from js, put it in the vms where the others are, same for the Annotations tab, etc. However, we need to make sure we preserve the level of customizability: annotations are designed to be easily customizable, from forms and UI, to js powering functionality and all, easily *from the browser* with no filesystem access. I prefer it stays like that. However, for the moment (2.3M1), that's quite a bit of refactoring (the integration) which i'm not willing to do. So for M1 it would be either: 1/ all in xar (js, css, script documents with annotation forms) 2/ js & css in resources, script documents with annotation forms & other scripted UI in .xar My vote goes for 1/ since it's less mess.
