Hi Anca and Stéphane, hi all,

Thanks for sharing that piece of code ; this opens a ton of possiblities
and use cases for other XWiki extensions working between wikis!

Regarding the naming of the application itself, application-wikicopy
looks nice as it shows a bit what the application does, you could also
consider application-xcopy as you are kind of eXtending the copy
function of the wiki (also it looks a bit sexier than wikicopy IMO :) ).

Thanks,
Clément
