[cclib-devel] Choices about Mediawiki

[Noel O'B. <bao...@gm...>]

Hello all,

I've been looking at the hosted MW (MediaWiki) on SF as we need to do
something about our own MW. Unfortunately, it is currently not
possible to import a database into the hosted MW, nor is it possible
to use Special:Import to import the text directly. While the former is
unlikely to be possible for a while (apparently it's on the To Do
list), the latter is described as Urgent in a recent Feature Request
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2107929&group_id=1&atid=200001).

The hosted MW is at apps.sf.net/mediawiki/cclib.

Right now, I can copy and paste the contents of our old wiiki into the
hosted MW. This is boring tedious work but it shouldn't take too long.
On the downside, we lose our wiki history. Does anyone care about
this? I don't think our history is worth that much and am happy to go
ahead and never have to worry about maintaining a MW in future.

Thoughts?

Noel
