Hi devs,

After brainstorming offline with several XWiki committers (devs from XWiki SAS 
mostly) here’s a proposal for the 6.2 roadmap:

Content
=======

* Guillaume with help from Caty: Make Flamingo production-ready and the default 
skin in XE. Specifically this means;
- Finish the AppBar implementation (with proper icons)
- Polishing everywhere
- Ensure it works fine on mobile devices
- Finish Theme Editor
- Investigation about UI standards (theme variables , css classes, html/macros, 
js) (some thoughts there: 
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/UIStandards)

* Thomas: Continue on improving page loading times and performances in general 
as much as possible in the time frame.

* Marius: Finish File Manager + javascript framework evaluation/proposal 
(propose angularJS with LT in angular + treeview, etc)

* Denis: Are you going to work on finishing signed scripts?

* Edy: Investigate Activity Stream v2. Goal: take the occasion of the rewrite to
- Make it performant
- Catch up and leap over the competition in term of features/usability ;)
- Need find all use cases and gather feedback from everyone

* Edy: Implement as many JIRA issues as possible from the list below, starting 
with the top one and going down:
- Support 2 roles for users for app within minutes: application creator and 
data creator XWIKI-8757
- Extension Manager add extension search should suggest only compatible 
versions XWIKI-9920
- New widget that extends the Suggest widget with the option to pick multiple 
values XWIKI-8097
- Welcome block is not easily editable XE-1389
- Watchlist activity shouldn't add a version to the page XWIKI-10332
- Wrong rendering of annotations for documents with sheets XWIKI-6328
- Delete user removal from groups is not scalable and is a potential security 
issue (for me the feature should be at least deactivatable) XWIKI-9641
- Importing documents with Office Importer will always generate pages in syntax 
2.0 XWIKI-9074
- Unpublished blog posts are displayed in the Activity Stream XWIKI-10425
- "Current wiki" wiki macros not available in the macros list in wysiwyg in 
path based multiwiki XWIKI-7739

default sort on a column XWIKI-9659
- Add a reload button for changing the CAPTCHA message at registration 
XWIKI-9879
- Show date and time of the install and user who installed for an installed 
extension XWIKI-10027
- User Directory should be configurable globally XWIKI-9170
- Creating wiki page containing / character XE-688

the class has been created XWIKI-10296
- The links to pages from the ToC of the watchlist notification message don't 
work on Outlook XWIKI-10500
- Hard to understand which is the default value for Profile's Preferences 
entries (edit/view mode) XWIKI-7715
- Add an explanation next to the fields in user profile XWIKI-6307
- Add an event in the Activity Stream for when a subwiki is created or deleted 
XWIKI-10280
- Allow to force the installation of an extension even if dependencies are not 
satisfied XWIKI-9827
- Access all page information in one rest request XWIKI-9135
- Allow to "send page by email" to a group (sold to AFCEN client) XE-1403
- Allow a default space to be specified for a template provider, which will 
automatically create the document in that space XWIKI-8759
- Renaming a page changes the creation date XWIKI-9425
- xwiki.cfg & xwiki.properties merging XWIKI-9831
- Empty groups can still have hidden rights applied, but not displayed in the 
UI XWIKI-9681
- Jump to a page using Ctrl+G doesn't work XWIKI-9787
- Top Active Contributors has empty values when the current user is local 
XWIKI-9991
- The default value of a date field should be empty or today, not the date when 
the class has been created XE-1388
- The User Directory does not display html for TextArea properties XWIKI-10149
- Page Blog.CategorySheet missing translation keys XWIKI-6540
- The "Username" and "Password" input fields don't have the same size 
XWIKI-10192
- Cannot restore document translations from recycle bin XWIKI-9567

Note that others can also help Edy on this :)

* Caty: Usability recording analysis and conclusions (Caty made some interviews 
with newcomers to XWiki with some scenarios to see what we should improve) + 
new icon set (vectorial) investigation (needed for AppBar) + UI standards (see 
above) + maybe help Edy (time permitting) on the AS investigation

* Lyes: Implement sending of mail invitations in Meeting Manager using the new 
Mail Sender API + Publish the Hierarchy Macro he’s been working on + work on 
Collaborative Apps
