OK, I see, I misread the initial proposal. I thought it could be something that can package any kind of distribution on top of the XWiki platform, not just something based on XE.
+1 for including the -enterprise- part in the name, although I still slightly prefer to add another part in there, but I'm not sure "product" is right anymore. Maybe xwiki-enterprise-derivate-archetype? -downstream-? -repackaging-?
