[xwiki-devs] requesting consistent application of XWIKI-2149 for feed URLs: ?xpage=rdf -> ?xpage=plain

A few weeks ago, Marius Dumitru Florea<http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=mflorea&g… this helpful hint in response to my question http://n2.nabble.com/support-for-google-sitemaps-and-webmaster-tools--%28an… I look at http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2149?focusedCommentId=25334&pag… http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/platform/core/trunk/xwiki-core/src/main/… FYI, it turns out this issue is also the source of bugs that might occur in a few places in the 1.8 final XAR, including the search-document's search-feed URL, for example: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XE-400 The following issue has been reopened. *Author:* Niels Mayer, Yesterday I've applied Marius's XWIKI-2149<http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2149>patch "Extend the FeedPlugin to allow the creation of RSS/Atom feeds from any source". New RSS urls with this revamped mechanism are of the type "/xwiki/bin/view/Space/DocRss?xpage=plain" (while the current way is /xwiki/bin/view/Space/DocRss?xpage=rdf"). I propose we add an action that return the "plain.vm" velocity template as entry point to render the document, and map a new "/feed/" action to it. This would allow us for example to have a blog feed URL like this : "/xwiki/bin/feed/Main/BlogRss" when the blog will actually use this new mechanism for its feed. I would also like to map an action with a more generic name to it, like "/plain/". "xpage=plain" is for example used when we create pseudo-REST web services (for example, all the AJAX/gridview features in XE do use URLs of that type). I believe it would be nice to have in the service request URL only parameters linked to the actual service. Thus I would propose we have something like "/xwiki/bin/plain/XWiki/MyService?myparam1=myvalue&..." .............
