Hi,
That looks like a good plugin. Didn't have a long look at the
sources yet, but it will sure be appreciated by the community.
Even if we encourage people to use the XWiki data model, I see the
need for connecting to external databases, when XWiki is not the
only one using that data, or when performance is critical and
hibernate slows things down too much.
Usual situation in corporate life -- where you have already existing databases
with own data model, which can't be easy mapped to hibernate.
You didn't mention the license on the page, and it
is not present in
the source files, either. I saw it is under GPL v3 in a package-info
file. It is a generally accepted rule that the license should be
clearly visible on the main project page.
Thanks for good words.
Issue with mention license in docs will be fixed in next minor release ;)
Thanks for sharing the plugin with the community.
