I'd like to take my local wiki (1.12) and bring it places to show it around. To do so, I reckon I need two things:
- a cross-platform wiki-on-a-stick (USB) setup (Mac and Linux and, I
guess, Windows) 2) a method to synchronize changes from my internal wiki to the one I carry with me and vice-versa.
The first part is probably pretty simple and just requires a bit of legwork to track down all the proper binaries and a bit of scripting to start and stop the various servers. However, the second part is a bit daunting and I'm wondering if anyone has yet taken this on? There's always the manual way of dumping the source DB, wiping the target and reloading it, but does anyone have alternative suggestions?

1) Take a lok at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_on_a_stick 2) If there's only one main server at each moment, you could copy *all* database files from the latest to the older one. Or have the oldest act as a slave. If you want to modify both versions and then merge, i don't think it can be done, as there can be contradictory changes.
