Hi,
Our RTF export has never been very good and is even crashing depending on the reader you
use (see for example http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-5251 ).
I propose to drop the RTF support without OO
Rationale:
* If a user really needs it he can make it work with an OO server connected to xwiki
* RTF is not really a mainstream format
* I don’t think we want to invest in fixing our RTF export
Here’s my +1
Thanks
-Vincent

+1. FOP developers don't have the time or desire to maintain the RTF
output, so it's unlikely to improve. RTF is a limited format.
On the other hand it is the only editable file format that XWiki can
provide standalone. Some users do like the ability to get out a document
they can edit, but I guess it's OK to only expose this feature when an
OO backend is configured.

Hello,
I remember wanting to propose this 2 years ago, but I can't remember why I
didn't do it exactly :)
So, here is my +1
Regards,
Sorin B.
