History
XWiki was originally written by Ludovic Dubost who founded XPertNet SARL later to become XWiki SAS, and it was first released in January 2004 under the GNU General Public License. The "X" in the name comes from "eXtensible Wiki" (when you pronounce it, it sounds as 'X').
The first version of the Wiki Farm xwiki.com[15] was released in April 2004. In addition the open source project was hosted on SourceForge and the first commit there was done on 15 December 2003.
In 2006, the license was changed to the GNU Lesser General Public License to give the developer community greater flexibility,[16] Apache Maven developer Vincent Massol became the lead developer[17] and XWiki won the Lutece d'Or award for best open source software developed for the enterprise.
After 6 beta versions and 5 release candidates, XWiki 1.0 was released on May 22, 2007[18] bringing new features such as stand-alone installer and semantic tagging.[19] 2007 also brought the introduction of XWiki Watch[20] for allowing teams to collaboratively follow RSS feeds.
