Hi Juan Pablo,
I do think the world has largely moved on from XML-RPC, so
losing it wouldn't seem to be a massive problem for most people,
certainly not new users.
Do you have an idea of what the API/endpoints might be for the
REST API? In a few weeks I'll to be out-of-country for the next
few months and might have some time to work on it. I've had a
lot of experience with the Java-native JAX-RS (was on the
original team at Sun) and I think I could wrangle something if
I can find the time, but I'd probably need some guidance in the
design, at least preliminary. The API could also be modular, i.e.,
composed from a core plus various component-related sections, so
it wouldn't need to be delivered all at once.
Cheers,
Murray

Hi! didn't have a lot of time this past few weeks, but I've managed to open
https://github.com/weberjn/jspwiki/pull/1 to remove Stripes and, while at it,
also Jetty
I'd like to look at what can be done with the xmlrpc usage. Given that xmlrpc is not ported to jakarta, perhaps ditching it would be an alternative, providing something equivalent after landing the jakarta branch. A 5 minute google search seems to imply that metaweblog has been superseeded by micropub so that might be an option. Providing a full rest api would be nicer, but I see that unrelated to the move to jakarta, could be tackled afterwards (and given our current pace I wouldn't expect to be delivered shortly)
@weberjn would you mind looking at the above PR? Also, I'm going to open a jakarta branch, so that this PR can be merged there. I would like to push a few PRs into master and merge them on this new branch before merging, but I'd prefer to go with this first to keep it as manageable as possible.
