Re: [Wikitech-l] SQLite Mediawiki support

I developed a MediaWikiLite system many years ago which worked reasonably well. It was for having a wiki on a memory stick that included the content and ability to edit it in the field without net access. It ran on SQLite and use Nanoweb, a web-server written in PHP to reduce dependencies further.
