Hi everybody,
since I've mentioned it in a previous email almost as a joke, maybe it
could be interesting to propose it in a more serious way as a GSOC
project.
So the idea is to implement the infrastructure for exposing XWiki as a
fully RESTful WebService for example by using RestLet.
First of all, I'm pretty new to this topic. But please help me clear some of
my doubts. :)
What functionality of XWiki will be exposed via the new WebService ? same
stuff as in XMLRPC ? or more ?
And why REST and not SOAP ?
This can have
some repercussions even on semantic features that
Stèphane was
proposing on the chat.
Can we discuss those here as well ? :)
Thannks a lot.

It might be interesting to implement a separate module that leverages
the XWiki API and exposes it in a RESTful way and build on top of it
some semantic infrastructure. Since in this scenario everything will
have an URI, it should be easier to leverage RDF and other semantic
frameworks.
This is just an idea to be worked on, if we are interested of course :)
WDYT?
Cheers,
Fabio
