I developed a corresponding sync. tool and a search engine (already public) which works fine :-). Hope the sync. tool will be public soon.
Could you point me to it?

Is there a possibility that I could instead (easily) merge the handful of individual wiki's content into one consolidated wiki and implement a more enhanced search against it instead? I've no experience performing a merge like this so expert advice would be
appreciated!
Have you tried dumping all of your wikis (see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/XML_dump#XML_dump), and importing all of the dumps into one wiki?
I'm working with a group that has customized their mediawiki installation so that they can create multiple wiki instances, each with their own database, that have no knowledge of each others existence. This was done for security and privacy reasons.
The dumpBackup.php utility seems to be built for a single mediawiki instance that uses a single database so there is no option to pass it a database name to dump.
I can dump each individual databases and try to merge them. Has anybody tried that?
Thanks - Tod
Our Maintenance class includes a --wiki param which accepts something like --wiki=thedb or --wiki=thedb-theprefix and sets MW_DB and MW_PREFIX constants you can use in your LocalSettings.
Though I could have sworn rather than that we had a proper wiki setting that set a variable with a wiki id the LocalSettings could use in the cli in place of the domain testing you have for web requests.
