We do not expect it to be fully removed, because the capacity of the simplified one will not be sufficient for advanced cases. But, the new right UI will be seen first using the same entry point as the current one, and from this new one you will found a fall back to switch to the advanced one if ever needed. I hope this clarify why we have proposed “ier” in the first place. What I do not find really right here, is that it will not be an application, most of the content will override existing standard UI pages, and integrate fully. So I was not seing it as an application, but I have not found a better name either. > > WDYT? > > Thanks > -Vincent > > > Thanks, > > Paul > > > > > > > > On Tue, Oct 20, 2015 at 3:51 PM, [email protected](mailto: > [email protected]) wrote: > > > Hi Paul, > > > On 20 Oct 2015 at 14:05:30, Paul Pantiru ([email protected] > (mailto:[email protected])(mailto:[email protected])) wrote: > > > > > > > Hello devs, > > > > > > > > I would like a repository on https://github.com/xwiki-contrib for > the > > > > extension I'm working on.
