[vmassol]

Hi devs,

Here’s a proposal for XWiki 13.9.

Main theme for 13.x

Stabilization

Content for 13.9

• FASTEN: Thomas
• If fasten is released
  • Start using the FASTEN Maven plugin in the XWiki build (but currently blocked by a released of the fasten-core which is still only SNAPSHOT)
  • Start working on a FASTEN extension to analyze installed dependencies and report FASTEN risks
• Progress converting LTs to LDs (best effort, once all other issues are done) - Manuel
  • CryptPad
  • https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-18759
  • https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-18758
  • https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-18752
  • https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-18746

  • https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-19001

• Security issues
  • XWIKI-18600 - Vincent
  • XWIKI-18850 - Manuel
  • XWIKI-16544 - Manuel
• Realtime integration in XS - Marius
  • Merge the feature-netflux branch that includes the realtime Wiki editor
    • Refactor some of the wiki-page real-time services to REST services for improved performance
  • Cleanup and integrate the real-time WYSIWYG editor (rtWysiwyg) (https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-18862)
• (Contrib) Instance Replication work - Thomas
  • Readonly replication
  • Display a status of a replication page and allow forcing full replication
  • Discuss/design replication of change requests
• (Contrib) Change Request work - Simon
  • Integrate discussions in change request:
    • Allow to chose the storage location by “application” - https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/DISCUSSION-23
    • Allow to start a discussion from a review - https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/CRAPP-40
  • Display a timeline of what happened in a change request - https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/CRAPP-41
• Add the ability to annotate content located inside the HTML rendering macro - Lavinia
  • https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-11169
  • https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12640 (to be closed probably once the proposal is agreed to use a mixed approach where annotations are handled server side except for the HTML macro when it’s handled client-side)
