Item1192: remove (TM)Wiki text in installer.pl
Priority: Low
Current State: Closed
Released In:
Target Release: n/a
[03:32] <wbniv> also, i want to remove the text "(if this is a TWiki release prior to 4.2, you can download this..." if u want to do that while you're in there, that would be great. otherwise i'll do it after u, no problem
[03:51] <Babar> we can't remove your message as it's in BuildContrib/lib/Foswiki/Contrib/BuildContrib/TEMPLATE_installer.pl
[03:51] <Babar> so: 1. it would need to re-upload the plugins for nothing
[03:51] <Babar> and 2. it might break for poor buggers having to maintain TWiki versions of their extensions
[03:52] <Babar> so it needs to be merged or something => raise a task and assign it to Crawford, with BuildContrib as target, and this log as object :)
this wouldn't require re-uploads of all plugins, because they can just pick up the new version from
BuildContrib during their normal development and release cycles.
i don't know about #2, which is why i'm asking crawford and micha.

I am fine with re-uploading plugins. Will do soon anyway.

Will's question was more: are you fine if we remove this message from all newly uploaded plugins?
As probably Crawford and yourself are the 2 main ones having to maintain both TWiki and Foswiki versions of plugins. But maybe you (Micha) got rid of the TWiki version, is that right? I tend to recall you stating something like that, but...

Maybe I don't get the problem in removing this TWiki related message...
