Hi Vincent,

That's  a good idea and that's something I had in mind for some time too :)

What part(s) exactly of our REST module do you imagine moving to commons ?
I ask because to be honest I'm not a big fan of how our REST API is built and what API it exposes ; and moving it to commons would be to "promote" it in a way. So, in my opinion, and since the subject in itself drags interest (at least from me), I think it would be a good occasion to try and find out what direction we want to to go regarding REST. If there is interest, I can take some time and gather my thoughts/feedback as why I think the current REST API/implementation is limited.

Hi guys,

Just got an idea about a talk I could give at a conference: Building a wiki, 
with XWiki Rendering and AngularJS.

The ideas are:
* Demonstrate XWiki Rendering through a use case which is to build  a simple 
wiki
* Use a recent/modern framework like AngularJS to draw people to the talk ;)
* Talk about XWiki
* Get people to use xwiki rendering and grow the developer base for xwiki 
rendering

I think we're close to be able to implement this but it's missing one thing: 
ability to call XWiki Rendering from REST.

Thus I think it would be a good idea to move our REST framework into XWiki 
Commons and then in XWiki Rendering add a REST module to expose rendering 
operations through REST.

WDYT?

Thanks
-Vincent
