[Moin-user] Problems migrating

[Rick Vanderveer]

Paul,
Huh, perhaps I mis-read or mis-interpreted the line from the CHANGES file:

  User interface:
------------------------------------------------------------
    * Removed "underscore in URL" == "blank in pagename magic" - it made
more
      trouble than it was worth. If you still want to have a _ in URL, just
      put a _ into pagename.

... And assumed that was the reason for the whole rename1.txt to
rename2.txtsequence.  If this is wrong, someone please correct me.
When I *didn't*
make changes to the rename2.txt file (especially the FILES), the migration
script bombed.

Someone please clarify the need/use of the rename files?

-Rick
