Hi Jonny

You mean the moin-import.php part? Most is done in Mercury. I doubt you've
heard of that language. :-) I don't see how the Mercury parts could be
integrated into Tiki. I don't think that would even make sense.

But I've already been thinking about integrating the moin-import.php part in
Tiki...

Cheers,
Volker
