Hello,
In our department, the actuel wiki is based on Mindtouch/dekiwiki and we
want to go to for a global wiki for the company with Xwiki.
To do that, we need to transfer our data from the actual wiki and I
managed to extract all the pages in HTML format (600+ files).
I have found in the mailing list history a reply from Vincent in August
2013 to a similar request :

Hi Jason,
I don't know of any existing Mindtouch converter to XWiki. However there
are several handmade converter tools on
http://extensions.xwiki.org that
could serve as examples.
What is the markup syntax used by Mindtouch? I have the feeling they
only provide HTML which would be fine since XWiki's Rendering can
convert HTML into wiki markup for example (or keep it as HTML too).
So converting a page would be:
* Read the export format from Mindtouch (what is it? XML?)
* Use the XWiki API to create a wiki page, convert the HTML content to
wiki markup (easy to do), add attachments
Also note that Thomas Mortagne (one of the XWiki committer) is currently
working on a wiki stream API that is an ideal scaffolding for
importing/exporting wikis:
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/wiki-stream . But there's non trivial
dev work to be done to make it work.
Another idea is to contact one of the companies providing professional
services around XWiki and ask them how much it would cost for a
conversion:

Hope it helps,
-Vincent

Could you please point me to the right direction to convert my 600+ HTML
pages to xwiki markup ?
If you have any information to help me for the integration, that would
be very kind of you
Thank you for your help.
Daniel.
