-0 for a UIXP but +1 for some new XClass(es) since UIXP should be reserved for skins, i.e. templates (vm files). Note that on this topic we need to conclude about http://markmail.org/message/ewk4rq7p2mtqehto (nobody replied to the last thread item I wrote :)). I don’t know what we agree about officially and what is still left to debate/decide. We need another thread for this. Now we need to more precisely define the XClasses. Ideas: * One XClass for inserting “boxes” in the “Main Features” section, see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Extension/Help%20Center%20Application/WebHome/HelpCenter-01-home.png. For example the Templates Application could/should insert itself instead of being hardcoded. * Another XClass for the videos page to contribute a new video definition, see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Extension/Help%20Center%20Application/WebHome/HelpCenter-02-videos.png * One XClass for adding a new macro on http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Extension/Help%20Center%20Application/WebHome/HelpCenter-04-macros.png * One XClass for adding a new application on http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Extension/Help%20Center%20Application/WebHome/HelpCenter-05-applications.png Note: There could be a single XClass with a “type” xproperty to say where the content is contributed to or they could be different if we want more typed-XClasses.
