Hello, On behalf of Adobe Systems Inc. I'd like to contribute two modules to Apache Sling:
- org.apache.sling.scripting.sightly - org.apache.sling.xss Sightly is the new web templating language shipped with Adobe Experience Manager 6.0 [0]. Our contribution to Apache Sling is a Java-based implementation, fully compliant with the language's specification. However, the language's specification is and will be owned by Adobe. For Sightly's contextual-based automated XSS escaping feature we're also donating the org.apache.sling.xss bundle that provides two useful services meant to help escaping or filtering user-submitted content that might be prone to XSS attacks. While the XSS module contains a decent amount of unit tests, the Sightly implementation was tested using a proprietary (for now) UI testing framework. I'm currently working on porting those tests into a test runner that will be made available under an Apache License on Maven Central; this runner could easily be integrated into Sightly's build process in the near future. SLING-3959 [1] has been opened to track the donation progress and the bundles are attached there. If the Sling community finds this donation interesting we can carry on with the IP clearance. Thanks, Radu *Sightly Credits:* Senol Tas, Honwai Wong - initial language specification and implementation Gabriel Walt - product manager, language specification Marius Dănilă, Radu Cotescu, Sameer Charles - Java implementation and JavaScript Use-API support Cătălin Buzoiu - engineering manager Feike Visser, Florin Iordache - early adopters implementing projects with Sightly, who provided valuable feedback during Sightly's development process [0] - http://docs.adobe.com/content/docs/en/aem/6-0/develop/sightly.html [1] - *https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3959 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3959>*
