1 This page aim at gathering ideas on how to make easier or encourage contributions to XWiki. The ideas are list items in each possible kind of [[contributions>>Contributing]].
2
3 This is not in any way a TODO list, it just list ideas, some of which we don't want to do right now (but it could change) even if they are very rare.

11 * Make pull request handling first priority: “Awaiting committer feedback” should not stay more than a few days (23 with 14 more than 1 year old right now)
12 * Lower the expected quality
13 * Move to Apache or other foundation
14 * Some regular official "contribution day" or something like this in client dev team (XWiki SAS)
15 * Create pull request from an XWiki instance
16 * --The [[SRD>>doc:platform:SRD.Navigation]] is never up to date. https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XINFRA-156-- There's now the [[extensions:Extension.Scripting Documentation Application]]--

32 * Support and export/import [[tmx files>>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_Memory_eXchange]]
