Hi Florin,
Sounds good. One thing you need to make sure is to have a pluggable
network component on the .Net side so that you can use different ways
to connect to the XWiki server.
You need to specify for the server guys what the ideal server API is for
your application to work. We could provide these in standard in XWiki so
that we don't need scripts with programming rights in the Wiki to handle
the connection. I think ideally the work done in the summer of code for
the REST api would be a good candidate to receive the appropriate apis
for that.
Can you specify the server API in your document that you need. I see:
- list pages as tree / list them by space / list them by parent-child
(we need to choose which one and it needs to scale)
- get wiki page as html
- put html as wiki page (new or existing)
- put office file as wiki page (full server conversion) -> this is if
we want to use the OpenOffice importer for the Office->HTML conversion
- get wiki page as office file (optional also)
- put office file as attachment

Hi devs,
I started writing an Add-in for Microsoft Word that could be a part of
our Office integration strategy.
In the next period I'm going to spend 50% of my time on developing this,
here at XWiki Romania.
The technology I use is .NET + VSTO. Yes, I know that .NET it's not in
XWiki's area, but this technology is very powerfull and it can bring an
advantage for our platform.
Here is the design page:
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/MicrosoftOfficeAddin
Please read it and give me some feedback.
