Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Reorganize XWiki Core JIRA components reflecting core/web modules (Take 2)

+1 I also like the idea of separating web. Will this be the beginning of the new core? I had read code comments about a new core module which needs no XWikiContext. I'm curious as to how this will be structured and whether reworking will start at the inside (store) or the outside (presumably document)
