Thanks for your quick response - I have just found out that the pages came from a version 1.7.0_1 MoinMoin server. The pages are already owned by user 'www' and group 'www' (which is what the webserver is running as) and the permissions are 775 for the directories and 664 for the files. I will have a look at the docs next and see if I can find anything about migration there.
