Hi devs,

I’d like that we retire the XMLRPC feature of XWiki.

Rationale: * We now have a REST API * The XMLRPC API is pretty old now, doesn’t support Nested Spaces, see http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-1249

The idea would be to: * Step 1: Relocate the code in an optional module (in addition to or inside one of the existing xmlrpc modules). This means handling some code currently in oldcore + update web.xml * Step 2: Move the optional xmlrpc modules to the github contrib organization * Step 3: Update documentation on xwiki.org and add an entry on e.x.o (move doc from http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XMLRPC in it).

Note that this will mean that XOffice will require users to install XMLRPC first if they want to try using it. Not a problem IMO. It’s also possible that the same will apply to XEclipse (or not) as I don’t remember if we had moved the code to use REST or not.

WDYT?

Here’s my +1

Thanks -Vincent

PS: FTR, first time this was discussed on the list: http://markmail.org/message/gnockgbhnbfroa75
