Final Review for Batch Create Tickets Feature

[Dammina Sahabandu <da...@apache.org>]

Hi All,

The idea of batch create tickets feature was initially came up few years
back [1] to create batch of tickets using a wiki list. Then it was
implemented as a wiki macro in 2014 as a gsoc project [2].

The basic idea of the feature is to let the users to create a batch of
tickets wherever the WikiFormatting [3] is supported. Then embed the
successfully created batch of tickets into the same view.

The feature was implemented on a separate svn branch [4] within the gsoc
timeline. However at that time it was not production ready and needed some
polish up. As a result it was not merged into the trunk and didn't bundled
with the 0.8 release. However within the past few weeks I did some
restructuring and reformatting to the code to make it production ready.

Please try out the feature by using the batch create tickets macro within a
wiki formatted page. The syntax is as followed,

[[BatchCreateTickets(x)]]

The 'x' should be the integer number of tickets that is going to be created
within the wiki.

The rendered wiki page should display an empty ticket table where users
will be able to define the relevant information.

To create tickets it is required to use the 'Create Tickets' button  after
entering the details. Upon submission the created batch of tickets will be
rendered within the wiki content as a ticket table.

So now I'm inviting all of you to kindly do a review and give me a feedback
whether it requires any modification or customization. After that if there
are no objections I will merge the work into the Bloodhound trunk and make
it available for the next release of the project.

PS: Please let me know if anything is not clear.
