Hi,
Will this module be useful outside the import/export feature? Can you
think of any standalone usage?
Other than import / export features, No. What I had in mind is something like what vincent suggested. I also have to agree that doing this kind of a separation just for the sake of modularizing might be an overkill at this point.
However, if we introduce an xwiki-office-exporter module, we definitely do not want that module to depend on xwiki-office-importer module so that it can consume openoffice services (that doesn't sound right).
So it seemed logical that we extract out an xwiki-office-openoffice (like vincent has suggested) module which will be consumed by both xwiki-office-importer and xwiki-office-exporter modules.
Same issue here, why would you need the exporter as a separate platform module? IMO, you should have a single platform module for the office import/export functionality, and have the server management, importer and exporter as nested modules. Even if this proves to be insufficient in the future, you should not hurry the transition today since there's no actual roadmap for the exporter or other possible features. Thanks, Florin Ciubotaru
Thanks.
