Agreed, as long as the event is the same, the parameters will be the same, but we will deprecate org.xwiki.bridge.event.* at some point, once the bridge is no longer relevant. So, in order to make the transition to the future events smoother, it is better to use the future-proof way of accessing the context. Actually, when the bridge won't be needed, XWikiContext will be useless as well. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
