Hi devs,
I was looking at http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5336 and basically I'm like Jens, I don't understand why we are using creation date in feed plugin.
So I'm proposing to change it for date (last version date).
FYI I'm planning to change
protected Date getDefaultPublishedDate(Document doc, Map<String, Object> params, XWikiContext context) { return doc.getCreationDate(); }
to
protected Date getDefaultPublishedDate(Document doc, Map<String, Object> params, XWikiContext context) { return doc.getDate(); }
in com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.feed.SyndEntryDocumentSource
WDYT ?
It depends on what the feed is supposed to show. If it's a feed of "new items", it should (I'm 60% for of this) use the creation date. For example the feed of new blog posts, the feed of new users, etc. If it's a feed of changes in the wiki, then it should use the modification date. So I'm +0 for changing the default date, I'd rather make this configurable, as a parameter to the feed generation method. + since most feeds exposed by XWiki are about changes, and the Blog currently doesn't use the feed plugin, so it won't be affected. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
