Hi guys, oldcore contains references to Portlet API 1.0 in various API. There is several issues: 1) Thoses API are useless since most of the code expect a servlet and would never work inside a Portlet so that make this API totally useless 2) It's a real pain for things like https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/sandbox/tree/master/xwiki-portlet (a portlet proxy/translator in front of XWiki) since it makes impossible to use Portlet API 2.0 (we had to create our own special branch were we remove all reference to 1.0 API in oldcore) 3) XWiki cannot work without the portlet jar even when used as Servlet which is quite ugly Since we are starting a new major version and it's a breaking change I propose to do it now. Here is my +1 -- Thomas Mortagne _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
