There’s this doc that you may or may not have seen already: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Scripting Please check in this doc the limitations of using groovy (programming rights). It’s easy to convert a velocity script in groovy in general since the bindings are the same and all the API calls are actually calls on java objects and thus are the same from all scripting languages. Let us know if you have specific questions.
