Hi devs,
There are several templates and actions that haven't been used in quite
a long time, most of which don't even work anymore. I'd like to remove
them, since they are a burden to maintain and they give the false
impression that some functionality exists and is supposed to work.
Actions to remove:
- /status/, which was supposed to give status information about the
server (memory + database connections), but it doesn't work at all now,
and it would need some major work to make it functional + safe. The same
(and more) functionality is provided by the Monitoring Application.
- /gettables/ /createchart/ /previewchart/ and /chartwizard/, which were
supposed to be used by a chart wizard developed in 2005, but
unmaintained since then, and which don't work anymore. Viewing manually
entered charts still works without these actions.
- /lifeblog/ (and the entire com.xpn.xwiki.atom package) which doesn't
seem to work, since it was written a very long time ago, and uses a lot
of old, not working stuff, like a XWiki.BlogPreferences class and
expects unencrypted passwords.
Templates to remove:
- status.vm, used by the /status/ action
- chwmain.vm, gettables.vm, getpagedatasources.vm and the chw/
directory, used by the non-working chart wizard
- wml.vm, since it offers very little functionality, and nobody really
uses WML anymore
- s5*.vm, used by the old Presentation Application, which was removed
from the default XE and has been unmaintained for a long time
All these probably haven't been used since before XWiki 1.0, and in case
we'll ever need them, they can be found in the SVN history.
