One feature we need is some {{office}} macro that will render the

This feature could be implemented using the XHTML generation for now.
The macro will simply have to generate a {{xhtml}} macro block element
containing the generated XHTML to work.
Then later on when the wiki conversion is working we could simply
remove the {{xhtml}} macro block.

Hi Vincent,
AFAIK, the conversion from xhtml to xwiki syntax is hard because many
things about how to render the html elements in xwiki syntax are
still
not sure, like table, img, {style} macro. Furthermore, the
xhtmlparser
is buggy, like <img> <link> list. I will try my best to make the
conversion work, but to make a option, I want develop a feature that
just convert office doument to xhtml. So the user can just use the
convert2html to get the xhtml and fill xhtml into xwiki page with
xwiki syntax 1.0. After we finish the new rendering and the
xhtmlparser, the use can change to convert2xwikisyntax.
The convert2html is easy but some thing to handle
* clean the html (htmlcleaner)
* remove the <style> in head (htmlcleaner)
* remove empty link (htmlcleaner)
* remove <p> in <li> (jdom)
* replace <img> with {img} (jdom)
* replace link <a> to [] (jdom)
* handle the ppt and odp to the single page
All these step is easy to implement. The convert2html may be not
perfect, but it can work for most conversion requirement for now.
As I
am runnig for deadline, I think a workable feature is useful.
However,
I will work on the finial gold "convert to xwiki syntax2.0"
continually.
WDYT?
I agree. Both conversion to XHTML and to wiki syntax should be
pursued.
