[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Disable (hide) the xwiki/1.0 syntax

Hi devs, It's been a (long) while since the introduction of the xwiki/2.0 syntax and the new rendering engine (introduced in 1.5, declared "usable" in 1.8, set as default in 1.9). This means that since ~2008, most of the development and maintenance effort has gone into the new rendering engine and the new WYSIWYG, and this left the xwiki/1.0 syntax and old WYSIWYG editor mostly unmaintained. All the platform and XE documents have been migrated away, but there are still XEM documents using the old syntax. I'm proposing to hide the xwiki/1.0 syntax by default, so that it's no longer easy to create a new document in that syntax (unless a template is used) or to select it as the new syntax for an existing document. It will continue to be available for existing documents. +1 from me. (I guess the 72h rule won't be applied since the next 72 hours are holidays for lots of developers) -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
