Hi.
Here at CSR, we are thinking about replacing our company-internal wiki, which is currently running ZopeWiki, with MediaWiki. (I had nothing to do with that decision *whistles innocently*... :) )
Does there exist a tool to convert the ZopeWiki data to a MediaWiki database?
Thanks! Timwi

None that I'm aware of, but if you write one we could include it. :)

No, you couldn't, because my employer would have the copyright to it.
But I'm probably not going to be able to do it anyway. I would have to figure out Zope's file format, and to do that, I would probably have to figure out Python.

Can't you create a new wiki and insert some sample data you will look for? Then you'll just need to sort out the timestamps.

It's a shame your employer doens't realize that when it comes to code, ownership is a liability.

From the ZMI in zope (the /manage screens) you should be able to export the
entire wiki as a serialized object in XML. From there, you can use any of your favorite tools to manipulate it.
g'luck,

Hi.. I think you mean Zwiki. There are a number of ways to the the data out; a simple one is to take a snapshot of wiki contents or recent changes, add /src to each of the page links, and wget them all. There's no MW conversion tool that I know of.
