Re: [Tiki-devel] [Tiki-users] [moin-user] Announce: Moin2Tiki, MoinMoin to Tiki migration tool

Hi Volker (copying the dev list too)

That's great, well done!

Have you thought about integrating that into tiki? It's generally how we work - the "all in one" approach! :)

The code looks clean and good, so we'd love to have you on board developing and fixing stuff inside tiki if you're up for that.

Anyway, impressive work, many thanks!
