I'm all for changes. I want them but this can't happen before a 1.0.
I'm fine with either of these options:
A) Create a 1.0 branch so that work can be finished for 1.0 and make
trunk 1.1/2.0. I'll commit on trunk then.
B) Commit on trunk right now since Maven uses alphas of doxia and
there's an alpha branch for maven. And since I believe trunk is
already not working with maven.
C) Leave trunk for 1.0 and create a 1.1/2.0 branch so that I can
commit there while waiting for the 1.0 version to be released and then
merged back everything to trunk
My preference goes to A) but I'm ok also with C). I know Lukas prefers
B).
Just let me know what I should do. Only thing that's sure is that I
don't have close to enough knowledge/bandwidth to help with the 1.0
release. The other sure thing is that I need a place to commit ASAP
since I'm stuck right now and I'll loose my momentum if I don't have a
place to commit. I really need to make quick progress to be aligned
with xwiki's needs.
Thanks

We have to make something for the site plugin to use.

Hi,
I'm just starting development on Doxia and I need to understand the
strategy since I need to make lots of breaking changes to
accomodate the XWiki use cases (I'm planning to replace XWiki's
rendering engine from Radeox to Doxia).
I've just talked to VincentS and Lukas and the consensus I got was
that I could just commit away on trunk and make breaking changes
since:
a) 1.0 has not been released yet and the API is not final and thus
it's the right time to do this
b) there an alpha branch that the current Doxia users (like Maven
itself) can use id they don't want to upgrade to the changes made.
So I'd like agreement that I can make my changes on trunk. Namely
I'd like to implement these (and more to come):
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-203: Add support for level
6 sections and generalize Sink API for sections
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-202: Add an API for getting
a tree of syntax blocks
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-165: Add support for macros
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-164: Add support for
strikethroughs
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-163: Add support for
underscores
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-204: Add generic parameters
support to Figure and Link events
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-205: Add new standard
parameters to figure sink API
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-206: Add new standard
parameters to link sink API
* http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-207: Add events for
recognizing words in the Sink API
WDYT?
Thanks
