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.

Hi guys,
Just got an idea about a talk I could give at a conference: Building a wiki, with XWiki
Rendering and AngularJS.
The ideas are:
* Demonstrate XWiki Rendering through a use case which is to build a simple wiki
* Use a recent/modern framework like AngularJS to draw people to the talk ;)
* Talk about XWiki
* Get people to use xwiki rendering and grow the developer base for xwiki rendering
I think we're close to be able to implement this but it's missing one thing:
ability to call XWiki Rendering from REST.
Thus I think it would be a good idea to move our REST framework into XWiki Commons and
then in XWiki Rendering add a REST module to expose rendering operations through REST.
WDYT?
Thanks
-Vincent
