That would be fantastic, thanks. Let's wait for Mark's feedback and then we can start thinking about next steps.
I am traveling and visiting family through the end of the month and haven't been following this too closely, but there is only one issue I'm concerned about and that's URLs to FAQ pages in archived list mail.
It's not a show stopper. We had the same issue when we converted from the FAQWizard, and it didn't seem to be a big deal, but here it is.
Every page (I think) in the wiki has three URLs.
E.g.
- <http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Frequently+Asked+Questions>
- <http://wiki.list.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3604482>
- <http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3>
I gather that in the migration to Moin, the pages will have names/URLs like 1. but with spaces instead of pluses. This is fine, and if necessary a mapping from old to new URLs can be easily constructed.
Form 2. is trickier. Confluence seems to use somewhat arbitrarily either
- or 2. in internal links, so form 2. is sometimes seen in list posts referring to FAQ articles.
Form 3. is what Confluence calls "Tiny Link: (useful for email)" and is available in the pages 'info' and (along with form 1.) in the "Link to this Page" Tool dialog. I use this all the time in list posts referring to FAQ articles.
I don't know what info is available in the Confluence dump, but it would be nice to have at least the 'tiny link' and maybe the pageId info so that mappings and maybe eventually redirections can be constructed to get from the old URLs to the new pages.
As I said, I don't think it's a show stopper, but it would be helpful.
Regarding the article numbers appearing in section 4 only: in the FAQWizard, all the articles were numbered. When Teri converted the FAQWizard, she dropped the numbers from the page titles. This proved controversial and Duncan Drury added them back, but only in section 4.
