[xwiki-devs] [Vote] Should the RSS macro extend the Box macro instead of just using it internally?

Hi guys! I'd like to know what you think about this matter, which has been raised on http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3375. As I posted there, this is what I think: -the parameters for the two macros are completely different, so i see no point for having the box specific parameters (cssClass, title, image, width and blockTitle) among the rss macro's ones, this will lead to confusion for the user. The box parameters are deduced from the rss feed's properties and then passed to the box macro. No need for them to be exposed in the Rss Macro. Therefore, extending the RssMacroParameters from the BoxMacroParameters is unreliable. -extending the RssMacro from the AbstractBoxMacro<RssMacroParameters> doesn't mean simply implementing AbstractBoxMacro.parseContent instead of Macro.execute. Currently, most of the code about the box around the css macro is placed in the box macro's implementation, which is DefaultBoxMacro, so we do make use of the existing implementations. Giving up using the box macro internally means giving up using most of the features already presented in the box macro and rewriting them -and finally, the most time costing disadvantage is that extending the rss macro from the box basically means rewriting this macro from scratch, because it involves redesigning it, task that will cost us time. So, therefore, I'm -1 for this. Tnx, Dan
