Hi Thomas and all,

Back from holidays! :)

I’ve noticed that the new feature of counting installed extensions on e.x.o is 
having a drawback: it saturates the activity stream, making it very hard to see 
real edits by users. Every day the scheduler modifies lots of wiki pages to set 
the new install count. See for example: 
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/News

I think a simple change would be for the scheduler to make modifications as 
minor edits. This should prevent the edits from being visible in the AS.

WDYT?

Now this is going to cause another real issue very soon: pages will soon start 
to have a lot of revisions and we know this is currently a performance issue. 
It’s also hiding real edits in the history making the history a bit less clean.

I guess an option would be for the scheduler to delete the last revision after 
it updates a page. Although not very nice, it could work for now. WDYT?

Thanks
-Vincent
