Hi, I finally got the time to make another iteration for these comparison pages.
If anyone want to make modifications on the texts, they are available at: - http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/Compare/ - http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/Compare/XWiki-vs-Confluence/ - http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/Compare/XWiki-vs-MediaWiki/ They should look like: - Compare: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/XWikiOrg2017/preview_Compare.png - XWiki vs. Confluence: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/XWikiOrg2017/preview_Confluence.png - XWiki vs. MediaWiki: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/XWikiOrg2017/preview_MediaWiki.png I'm curious to know what you think about this version in terms of layout, validate the content, maybe you have other points that we can compare the solutions on, maybe I wrote something wrong for the solutions.
