Hi dev folks,

I developed a math plugin ("MathTex") to render LaTeX math expressions in XWiki.

Currently the plugin supports two formula renderer:
  - The default one (contained in xwiki-plugin-mathtex-core.jar) is
LGPL and thus can be embedded in the XWiki packages
  - The other one is GPL (powered by JMathTex) and gives better
results. It can used by adding the xwiki-plugin-mathtex-ext.jar to the
classpath and adding a parameter to the xwiki.cfg to override the
default renderer
(xwiki.plugins.mathtex.builder=org.thenesis.xwiki.plugin.mathtex.JMathTexFormulaImageBuilder)

In order to work this plugin requires modifications of some parts of
the XWiki default classes/files:
  - xwiki.cfg
  - macros.txt/macros.vm
  - struts-config.xml
  - XWikiRightServiceImpl.java (privileges for actions)

So an admin couldn't just grab it from the plugin zone and make it
work out-of-the-box.

Hence I would like to propose this plugin for integration in XWiki
with two alternatives:
1) Full integration
2) Partial integration (macros, struts-config.xml,
XWikiRightServiceImpl.java changes) + users still have to load the
plugin jar(s) from the plugin zone.
