Hello,

I have to move my wiki installation several times a year and it's always a 
laborious, time-consuming admin task.
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Moving_a_wiki

I was wondering if there were any plans to make it easier?  Would it be 
possible to develop a script or admin functionality to automate the task - 
saying breaking it into just two steps: "Export entire wiki" and "Import wiki". 
 It would backup/restore the database, copy any additional files LocalSettings, 
(uploaded images etc), ...

Another problem I encounter is that one platform has an older version of 
mediawiki and the new platform has a newer version - but to move the wiki 
there's no way around installing two versions on one of the servers.  Am I 
missing something?

Z.
PS Thanks to all the contributors for the great software - it's really top 
quality!
