[Mediawiki-l] wiki on a stick

[Dan Thomas]

Micah - I've had success running MW 1.11 on Windows XP and Vista using
XAMPP for Windows -- Apache project integrating MySql, PHP and Apache.
 See: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html

The PortableApps.com site (http://portableapps.com/ ) does a nice job
of packaging/installing XAMPP.  PortableApps also provides putty and
other handy tools.  Dan
