[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] New thumbnails module

Hello again, I would like to introduce a new module in platform : xwiki-platform-thumbnails. The idea of the module is to provide means of handling thumbnails in XWiki. Right now the main purpose is to expose APIs to retrieve thumbnails URLs for images stored as attachments. This module first use will be to generate thumbnails of user avatars. In this scenario, it will also introduce a performance improvement compared to today's way of computing avatar URLS, since the module caches both the property values (the fact that user X has set an avatar Z.png) and the thumbnail URL for this avatar. I've already pushed it in a feature branch/. You can check in particular https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commit/3f5aa1e24ba00fcc939b73b8f9ba… and all commits in the branch at https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/commits/feature-thumbnails Let me know what you think. -- Jerome Velociter Winesquare http://www.winesquare.net/
