Hi everyone,
I would like to propose to stop having playground.xwiki.org as a subwiki of the xwiki.org instance and instead move it to its own VM.
We are still discussing the detail of the technical solution, but what is important is that it means the following changes:
Pro:
- the pages in the playground wiki won’t appear in the global search
- one less complex thing to take care of during xwiki.org upgrades
- much easier to reset playground every day
- much easier to have a much more up to date XWiki version on playground
- it will be possible to allow playground users to do more things (like write scripts) since it will be isolated
- the playground instance won’t impact the rest of xwiki.org in terms of performances
Cons:
- you won’t be able to use your xwiki.org account to edit playground pages (but I don’t see how this would be an important feature)
Here is my +1.
