Hi,
Interesting feature: I like the way GMail treats
attachments. We could
Yup, these are definite possibilities. I wish if I could spend a week on
this ;)
There was a university student working on a office-exporter project for
XWiki but not sure of it's status. I'll point him into this thread and see.
Thanks.

have something similar in the attachment list.
Each supported file
format will have some links next to the default download link, for
previewing as HTML, downloading as PDF, converting to the equivalent
concurrent format. For example. we could have:
[doc] QuarterlyReport.doc ^1.2^ [preview in browser] [download as PDF]
[download as .odt]

[ods] ExpenseReport.ods ^1.1^ [preview in browser] [download as PDF]
[download as .xls]

However, we should carefully consider the implications, since users
could expect this to be a perfect feature they can trust, and data loss
could occur when the transformation fails partially.
I like the Gmail-like idea too and it would indeed be a cool addition.
Another interesting thing to do would be to let the user export any wiki
page in the Office format of his / her choice. Instead of uploading a
document, why not simply export an existing wiki page?
If that's can be done it could be useful, I think many people would like to
be able to export wiki pages in the .doc or .odt format.

Thanks.

PS: It would take about 2-3 days to fully implement and test the
application.
