Re: [xwiki-users] integrating data from JSPWiki/DokuWiki/mediawiki

Hi, I'm in organization where we have 3 unsynchronized wikis, implemented using the software named in subject (ie JSPWiki/DokuWiki/mediawiki). I would like to merge their content in one unique wiki, obviously implemented using XWiki (due to the excellent interview Vincent Massol and Ludovic Dubost gave to the castcodeurs podcast). I have seen there are extensions to have content of those legacy wiki imported into XWiki. However, i'm not sure I understand how they work. 1 - JSPWiki to XWiki There seems to be an old (?) extension at http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/JSPWiki+To+XWiki+Conve…, documented by Vincent Massol. From what I understand, the Java code in this extension has to be compiled independently, and run as a stand-alone program on the machine hosting the JSPWiki server. It will generate a XAR that can be injected into XWiki. Am I right ? If so, it is hardly an extension of XWiki, but rather a companion program (but I'm nitpicking). However, as a stand-alone program, isn't it available as an executable JAR somewhere ? 2 - Dokuwiki to XWiki This time, it's a valid XWiki extension : http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Import+DokuWiki+into+X… which is easily installable using Extension manager (cool !). However, I wonder how it will work with XWiki 6.4.2 ... 3 - mediawiki to XWiki This time ... it seems like there is no extension. or is it ?

bonus - xwiki-OLD to xwiki We also have some content in an old (5.0.1) version of XWiki. How do I migrate ? Conclusion - cheers I must confess I had never tried before XWiki, and my first impression is that it's a robust and perfectly usable wiki solution. The XWiki team did a really impressive work. -- Nicolas Delsaux _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
