Hello,

I would like to move the new Skins Tutorial (
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/XWikiNewSkin ) in the Dev
Guide and link it  from Adminstration Guide.

Here is my +1.

Thank you,
Raluca.

What is the rationale?
And why link it from the admin guide? I mean why not link all the  
other topics then?

I had put it in the admin guide because changing the skin is an admin  
operation and is not something to be done by users.

So personally I prefer to keep admin stuff in the admin guide. Admin  
here doesn't mean infrastructure but administration of the wiki.

for now I'm -1 till someone explains why we need to change this.

Thanks

In my opinion, this was wrong from the beginning. "Changing the skin" is
an admin topic, while "Creating a new skin" is not. It's a developer
topic. That's why I proposed to Raluca to "link it" from the admin guide
(what I had in mind was to link it next to the explanations on how to
change a skin).

For me the real question is what do we want to do with the existing
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Skins, especially
starting from the "Creating a skin" heading. My take would be to keep
the introduction, and then link to the tutorial (that we add under
DevGuide/Tutorials)

Hi Raluca,

The tutorial is great, nice illustrations.

For me it misses a paragraph where you explain the differences between a
filesystem skin and a skin defined in a wiki page.

+1 to promote it a tutorial,

Jerome.
