This is a big amount of work and it won't be perfect for sure. Actually it'll probably be very far from perfect. >> BTW we have the question for the office converter.

For example transforming [link] into [[link]] sound trivial but it's not. we need to ensure for example that the [] is not inside a <script> element since it could be an array in javascript. However it's also possible that this script is expecting velocity to be executed on it and it contains some real links in wiki syntax... So the best we can do is propose something but the user will have to review and edit it before saving it. I'm worried how much time we'll have to spend on this. It's easy to do some quick things but once we have this conversion button we'll get lots of complaints if we don't do it right... Right now we need to put all our energy in having the new rendering fully work for all cases and there's nobody working on the conversion. It would be nice if someone else (maybe a contributor. Come on, this is a call for help, come forward! :)) could join us and start working on this right now. BTW I've started documenting conversions here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/XWikiSyntax20 Thanks -Vincent >>> I think this new wysiwyg + the new rendering may warrant us calling >>> this XWiki 2.0 when we activate them and make them the default.
