Re: [xwiki-devs] [Idea] Conference Talk about XWiki Rendering + Rendering REST framework

Hi Vincent, That's a good idea and that's something I had in mind for some time too :) What part(s) exactly of our REST module do you imagine moving to commons ? I ask because to be honest I'm not a big fan of how our REST API is built and what API it exposes ; and moving it to commons would be to "promote" it in a way. So, in my opinion, and since the subject in itself drags interest (at least from me), I think it would be a good occasion to try and find out what direction we want to to go regarding REST.

If there is interest, I can take some time and gather my thoughts/feedback as why I think the current REST API/implementation is limited.
