Yup. I have (a few) experience with MoinMoin and, of course, would love to see the Cocoon wiki migrate here. :-)

Given your expression of interest, I have restarted my work on JSP->Moin conversion.


If you read no further - read this: Please review the wiki at wiki.apache.org/cocoon. I consider this to be a valid final pass at the wiki conversion (on data that is a few weeks out of date). I believe that all the remaining conversion issues should be handled manually, if you disagree, please let me know.

No, to move on:

The one outstanding problem was that the script was converting things that appeared in {{{ }}}, which it shouldn't. For example, on the LoadBalancingWithModProxy, there is a [P,L] which was getting converted to [:P,L]. When I tried using this within Apache, it took me quite some time to work out that the problem was with my Wiki conversion rather than with Apache! Anyway, I believe I have fixed this already, and will have uploaded a new version by the time you read this.

The only remaining thing I _could_ do is where Moin detects CamelCase and makes links of it. These can be worked around with !CamelCase, which stops it becoming a link. But that one we can do manually when we see it. The previous {{{}}} problem would have been too esoteric to fix manually and thus needed to be done within the script.

The other thing that was unresolved, but now works, is admin access to the wiki. After I do a small change, anyone within the cocoon group on Minotaur (all Cocoon committers) can add a password so that they can have administrative access to the wiki (e.g. deleting/reverting pages, etc, I believe).

So, I need people to review the site at wiki.apache.org/cocoon, and to point out anything that is unacceptable. If no objections, we should make the JSP wiki read only, run the conversion script, upload the new content to wiki.apache.org. The new wiki will then be live. After that (as Steven has previously suggested), some clever mod_rewrite rules on wiki.cocoondev.org could redirect people to the new Wiki. The below would do _most_ of it:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  Wiki.jsp
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ?page=(abc)
RewriteRule .* http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/%1 [R=301]

So, please review the new wiki conversion, and hopefully we can switch pretty soon. If I hear nothing, I'll start a vote in a few days.

Regards, Upayavira
