Hi,

This leads to a general question: do we want to
continue supporting XMLRPC
in XWiki, in the platform (now that we have good REST support) or should we
drop it and move it as a contrib/retired module?
(once we've migrated all our modules to use REST of course. I can think ok
xeclipse and some functional tests).
Keep it for now. The maintenance cost is not very high.
XOffice still depends on it. Note that REST does not cover the entire
XML-RPC functionality yet(iirc it's missing syntax conversion, search, and a
few others).

Thanks

Isn't XMLRPC support used to mean Confluence support ? I really don't
care about Confluence support if you ask me, just making sure we are
taking everything into account.
