Hi,
Since I'm rewriting the new Rendering component
(see http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewRenderingArchitecture)
, we need to finalize the new syntax we want to have.
Right now I'v planned to use the same wiki syntax as now
(http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/
XWikiSyntax#HTextStyles) with only one change: all macros now need to
be closed.
For example: {macro}...{/macro} and {macro:text|param=value|.../}
Is that ok with everyone or do we want to make changes?
Thanks

There might be a few changes interesting.
Deprecate {link} and make sure we can use [] for outside links
Deprecate # which is one of the ways to do numbered links but is a pb
with velocity
+1 for closing the macros.
If we make more changes we should look into getting closer with WikiCreole

For link that's a macro so we just need not to add it.
For [], that's already supported in the current syntax AFAIK.

I agree.
+1 for closing the macros.

WikiCreole
The idea is to keep the xwiki syntax here. Other syntaxes support are
done by other Parsers.
Thanks

OK for me.
Do we want to be more XML-like and suggest the following syntax?
{macro:table firstRowAsHeader="true" oddEvenRows="false"}
...
{/macro:table}
- use spaces as separators
- use macro: as a kind of namespace (or wiki: ?)
- require "" around attribute values
- require named parameters, as right now there is an implicit order, so
if the first parameter does not have a name, it is considered to be the
value for "that" parameter.
But with fallbacks:
- also allow | as separators
- if the macro name does not start with macro:, and does not match
another kind of block element (like groovy or html), then consider it a
wiki macro
- also works without "" around values
- Print a warning in the log when a deprecated syntax is used
WDYT?
