Re: [xwiki-users] Mediawiki to XWiki Migration

Hi Mike, Great stuff! I don’t know Mediawiki so well and I’d love to know more about the strengths that you see in XWiki when compared to MediaWiki (I’d like to prepare some comparison page for users on xwiki.org that compares XWiki with various other wikis and it would help a lot if you could share your thoughts on this). There’s some new code being developed for importing from MediaWiki but it’s still young and has barely been released and probably has rough edges. But if you’re willing to try it out and play the guinea pig, it could be interesting for us to know how it fares. Let us know what you think and if you’re interested maybe Thomas could provide some more information (since he’s developing that importer). Thanks -Vincent PS: If you’re willing to go the easy path and want to have someone do that conversion for you, you should also know that the XWiki SAS company (http://xwiki.com, it’s the company that is the main sponsor of the development of the xwiki open source project) has lots of experience in converting from MediaWiki to XWiki, and they offer this service. They can be contacted at http://www.xwiki.com/en/company/contact-us
