For the wikitechers, WikipediaFS virtually mounts the Wikipedia website so you can view and edit Wikipedia articles as if they were real files.
This is really awesome. Is there any chance you could change the name of the project, though? Wikipedia is a trademark, and your project can do a lot more than hook into just Wikipedia.

Clearly, it if it's going to be called anything in that area, it should be called MediaWikiFS. I suspect 'mwfs' is probably the safest approach... though a quick googling says that MetaWrap is doing that.
"MWVFS", however, googles clean.

Just for clarification, I'm being attributed for this:
Interesting, but does not scale. Plan 9 has another spoof FD like this, though also primitive. This does not scale as a true WikipediaFS, but I know a true Wikipedia based File System that does ... :-)
However, I didn't say that - I'm not sure where it came from :(

Someone actually tried it or you just chatting about how cool it is? It does not work for me and not FUSE%UDEV related problem. It don't mount anything, the first directory eg what your defined with <directory> is missing and from now you can't continue. It mounts clean, nothing in the log so any idea how can I debug wikifs?
