It also allows us to support a "standard" feature of wikis. Since we had put on wikimatrix that we support interwiki links we had to have it... ;) Side note: if we want we could have an "iw" alias as the link type to provide a shorthand. Not sure it's required though. BTW there were 2 votes for this feature so at least 2 persons were waiting for it ;) Thanks -Vincent >> I have this already implemented, waiting to commit. _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
