Description

• Extension Descriptor format:
  • Name
  • Description
  • Categories (a list of well-known - to be defined - categories/tags that identify the content of the XAR, e.g. "Wiki Macros", "Rendering Macro", "Application", "Skin Extension", etc)
  • Author
  • Version
  • License
  • URL
  • Dependencies (on other Extensions, includes version ranges)
  • Version of XWiki Core required
  • Extra properties (for later extensibility)
• The Extension Descriptor doesn't need to explicitly list pages since they can be found automatically.
• Installation scripts: let extension provide install/uninstall/upgrade scripts for custom operations
• Idea for layout:
  • ROOT/jars/*.jar
  • ROOT/pages/<space>/<page>.xml (translation pages have a suffix with the language appended)
