If we want to use this flavor as a dependency for the other Flavors that will be built on top, than I would like it to be called just "XWiki", so your 1). All the other flavors built on top would have composed names like "XWiki KB", "XWiki Groupware", etc.
Otherwise my vote goes to 3) Base or Basic. I think we should first define what this contains. For me it should not just be EM, but all the default XWiki capabilities to create content: from administration, to users, to templates, to editors, to viewers, to livetable, to navigation, etc. :) Thanks, Caty On Mon, Apr 3, 2017 at 6:41 PM, Thomas Mortagne <[email protected]> wrote: > On Mon, Apr 3, 2017 at 5:27 PM, Vincent Massol <[email protected]> wrote: > > > >> On 3 Apr 2017, at 17:22, Thomas Mortagne <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> > >> On Mon, Apr 3, 2017 at 4:36 PM, Vincent Massol <[email protected]> > wrote: > >>> Hi, > >>> > >>>> On 3 Apr 2017, at 16:18, Thomas Mortagne <[email protected]> > wrote: > >>>> > >>>> Hi devs, > >>>> > >>>> Since 8.0 we have in xwiki-platform a flavor simply called "XWiki > >>>> Flavor" which contains more or less the strict minimum to have > >>>> something you can call an XWiki instance (Administration, Extension > >>>> Manager, a home page, etc.). > >>>> > >>>> Since we want to promote the new Knowledge Base flavor have a > >>>> concurrent called "XWiki" is not really making it a favor so we should > >>>> probably find another name for it. > >>>> > >>>> Here are some ideas: > >>>> > >>>> 1) "XWiki" Flavor, it's Ok after all > >>>> 2) "Default" Flavor > >>>> 3) "Base” Flavor > >>> > >>>> 4) "Lite" Flavor > >>>> 5) "Mini" Flavor > >>>> 6) "Minimum" Flavor > >>>> 7) "Pico" Flavor > >>>> 8) <another word that means small> Flavor > >>> > >>> This raises a question: Why do we have such a flavor?
