Now that the Blog Upgrade to 2.0 wiki syntax comes
soon to a close I want to focus on the improving its performance and ease of use. As
suggested beforehand I think creating a Blog Plugin would probably the best way to
accomplish that.
For that I would suggest that all methods in "Code" documents in the blog
(BlogCode2, CategoryCode and if needed RssCode) become part of that plugin.
Beside that I am also wondering if that plugin should become part of the Core
(xwiki-core) like the Feed Plugin or a regular plugin like the Scheduler Plugin which I
think would be the best.
I for one don't like this that much. It takes away the ability to edit
the application inside the wiki (which is not a very big problem, since
users should be satisfied with the existing functionality), but also the
ability to easily study its code, which prevents learning.
I like that in XWiki users are free to see, study, and change the code
of applications, and I wouldn't like to loose that.
