Error [39207] occurred on server. Possible client-side licensing
failure.
Make sure the LANG environment variable is set to C *both* where you
startudt *and* where you run the UOJ code

Oh U2 licensing...

Refreshing it took me to a page that worked and it does look a heck of a
lot friendlier/cleaner.

That's another community project that stalled, but this one was my
fault.  :)

Ian McGowan still hosts the existing site.  Rex Gozar, Ian, and I
discussed and started the migration process, which then stalled in
Jan/2010.

See the prototype here:
remove.thisNebula-RnD.com/mediawiki
Where it says "remove.this" ... remove that part.  That's not a new
permanent home, that's just where I was staging the migration.  Please
don't update pages there, changes will be lost in the next conversion.

Click the Random Page link to see various pages.  From the Special Pages
link you can find "All Pages" and more.  Search for "To Do" to see what
else needs to be done.

MediaWiki is much better than the software being used now, and I still
think this migration is a worthy project.  The roadblock was converting
from the current markup codes to MW-specific markup.  We were doing this
with BASIC, parsing documents and re-writing them in the new format,
then importing them into MySQL.  As you can see, most of the pages
converted quite nicely.
As with any programmatic language conversion however, there were some
codes there were more difficult to convert than others, and lots of
metadata needed to be generated from scratch.  When pressed to generate
income I put that project on hold, and there it now sits with a dozen
other community projects just like it.

If I can find some time (ha!) I'll try to publish code and notes on the
live pickwiki.com so that others can help.  This is a one-shot, and once
all pages are migrated we don't need the code anymore.  For as long as
this has taken, it might have better to finish some of the document
conversions manually.  That said, considering the number of people who
participate in community projects, I didn't think I could count on much
human assistance for this one.

Thanks for asking.
