Hi,
I was wondering if there is any way in which Mediawiki could support
content federation, something like InstantCommons but for transcluding
content from external mediawiki instances. Has it been attempted before?
The reason for this is that in some countries some texts are copyrighted
while in other countries they are supposed to be in the public domain.
On Wikisource we use iwpages [1] for translcuding between different
language versions, and it would be interesting to know if we could
transclude pages from external websites like Wikilivres [2].
Thanks
Micru
