[Mediawiki-l] File archive?

[W.]

hi,

i think paFileDB might be what you are looking for. (can be found at: 
http://www.phparena.net/scripts.php?script=pafiledb )

as for licencing it is not GPL but it is free to use on personal/commercial 
sites as long as you keep the copyright text.


regards
w.
