4 > Hello! There is very lack simple data backup. The lack of a simple backup of all data (via the web interface) greatly limits the use of Xwiki. Such a backup is available at Confluence.

15 > May be sell usefull apps or functions like the integration of onlyOffice where people have to pay something.
16 May be write a book or a wiki about how to use and extend xwiki. Give access to this for a fee. At the moment my impression and personal experience is that documentation is avaoid because of costs.

76 > Most enterprises (and even smaller organizations) use some kind of directory service for user authentication and group management (e.g. OpenLDAP, Microsoft Active Directory, Samba). XWiki currently (to my knowledge) supports static mapping between local XWiki Groups and LDAP (security) groups based on Distinguished Name (dn). Maintaining lots of such groups quickly becomes tedious as LDAP groups are created, removed, renamed, and relocated. This has to be kept synchronized with the static configuration within XWiki and is prone to errors. I suggest some kind of automated mechanism for supporting external (security) groups with a configurable key of various data types. As an example, in Active Directory, a possible attribute to use is the "objectGUID" (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms679021(v=vs.85).aspx) which is a 16-byte value, since it is the same during an object's entire life cycle. That way, role management within XWiki can be centrally managed using already existing tools, aligning management with already established business processes.
77
78 **Answer from Thomas Mortagne (XWiki Core Dev)**:
79 > LDAP groups are not only LDAP DNs, you can also use LDAP filters and organization units. So in your case it would probably be something like ##XWiki.MyXWikiGroup=(objectGUID=someguid)##. See the examples in [[the xwiki.cfg file>>extensions:Extension.LDAP.Authenticator||anchor="HGenericLDAPconfiguration"]].

85 > I have recently tried your XWiki product with different deployment methods. In general XWiki works really well, quite easy to use, and the access to the source editing with XWiki syntax is powerful.
86 > - Installation: should be more stable (I couldn't install in on a Linux docker container, even though I tried all types of DEB packages
87 > - I haven't tried on a real Linux server). The Zip deployment on Windows works great though. Flexibity of choosing diffrent deployment methods is good, but if it's hard to keep all options work fine, I suggest only support Zip and WAR deployment, as these options should work for most normal usage scenarios.
88 > - UX/UI: Generally, UX is good, the onboarding tutorial is nice and very useful. UI is quite modern and looks nice compared to other wiki softwares. However, few things could be improved: The organization of the left menu could be simplified a bit. UI should have more consistent look and feel (now it is flat UI here, 3D there, font size varies from place to place, etc.) Would be nice to see it in 100% Bootstrap 3. Also, the default formatting for tables could be improved. Comming from Confluence I miss the way they treat tables (and the whole editor in general): that is some kind of common sense that made table look/work good enough yet simple enough for almost all kind of uses. So when using XWiki I always add a simple grey background to all table header columns/rows (but it took a little bit of learning the xwiki syntax). And I still prefer the UI for creating table on Confluence.
89 > - Security: for the on-premise delployment package, please don't use a default password for Admin, that's a very bad security practice (a lot of people will forget to change that password, see more here: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Top_10_2013-A5-Security_Misconfiguration), I suggest dynamically generating amdin password when xwiki starts the first time, then print it out in the console or a local file, then force user to change it when they first log in.

305 > - no experimental things in the stable version. stable means stable.
306 > All in all you are doing most of things right! With hiding technical documents and the brand new Distribution Manager (like it) you have responded the last XWiki survey. So there is nothing to add here, what is not in the survey ;)

317 > I find the UI too cluttered, specially at the top, where it has too many menus and buttons. Things should be simpler, maybe some options could come to the bottom of the page and/or be hidden.
318 > There should be a way to have spaces inside spaces, at least with 1 level of depth.
319 > When showing changes i wish you could show them as "Space.Page" or "Space.ParentPage.Page". I say this because if we have "Space1.page" and "Space2.page" and we alter Space1.page in the widgets i see "page" and do not know at a glance in which space was it altered.
