XWiki has a lot of different pieces to it and using it as a library means deciding what pieces you'd like to reuse. All pieces located in commons/, rendering/ are easy to use as a library. This means that you can easily reuse the XWiki rendering engine, see http://rendering.xwiki.org Now it's also possible to use some modules in platform/ but that'll depend on the module. The WYSIWYG editor is also usable as a library. Marius, do we have doc on xwiki.org that explains how to do this? (we should have it). Plugin support is deprecated is now component support, which is part of common/, see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Component+Module Multilang support is going to be hard to reuse ATM. Let us know more if you need more details.
