Hi JspWikiMakers!
About plugin API, I rather agree with the approach "those who follow,
will follow reasonable changes in the good direction". The other will
stay with what they have. What is important is to not forget those
changes in the Release Notes!
Thinking to this and:
1) the problem I have recommending customers to integrate Schema.org
support (HTML5 Microdata; passive SEO where all necessary metadata is
added) and JspWiki (and many others) not really supporting it;
2) the problem I have with CK editor where Wiki->XHTML and back is not
100% faithful (especially with plugins parameters containing special
characters like "%": I solved most other issues),
I am wondering when (AFTER 2.9) / where this could be discussed.
I would dream of a JspWiki 3.0 (to which I would be willing to
contribute) where:
1) we would split current WikiMarkup content in Templates and "fields
content":
Templates would be "free" HTML with possibility to include plugins
Fields content would be text, numbers, dates (etc: pluggable field
content widgets/validators/marshaller/unmarshaller) or XHTML (CK editor)
without the possibility to call plugins
2) Template pages could be instanciated in actual pages where different
fields would be dynamically included. Page headers would also have
access to fields content to fill metadata headers.
For a given Wiki, a "power user" (knowing HTML 5) could create the
necessary templates and the "regular" users would be much more
confortable: only validated text, CK edited text, numbers, dates, etc.
to fill up in a form.
Am I stupid or current JSPs of JSPWiki are the templates I am
dreaming of?
What about the different fields in a single page then?
... the different page types?
... the different field types?
This for me to investigate: any suggestions/examples very welcome!
Jane already declared XHTML content would be something else than
JspWiki. It is true that it begins to look like a collaborative CMS.
What do you think?
Have a nice day!

P.S. It is told to me that Drupal is just like that. I do not want to
switch to PHP!!!

Hi all,
short answer from me:
+1 for generics
-1 for 2.9.0
+1 for a JIRA issue on this topic (FixVersion 2.9.1) with a good
heading and description, in order to let people explicitely know about
the change.
BTW: I remember Janne's work on an API - is that still in people's heads?
@Ichiro: Where will you publish that stuff? I guess it will be under
an LGPL license?
I always think it's a pity that there are many JSPWiki plugins out
there, but they're quite hard to find. WDYT of some kind of extension
gallery for JSPWiki, partly with links, partly with the possibility of
hosting the code itself, for example apache-extras, google code or so?
Regards
Florian
PS @Juan Pablo: Have fun at ApacheCon! Wish I was there too, but there
was no possibility this time to go there.
