For the moment I put them on xwiki-contrib, in a "retired" repository. For the future, I agree that an xwiki-attic organization would be better; still, I prefer to leave things as they are for the moment, until we find something else to put there (old XWiki Workspaces, old XWatch). -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
