Re: MediaWiki vs. wikispaces

I've poked around a bit more with wikispaces in sourceforge.

I extended the "navigation" pane to include the top-level
of the BitPim document.

I also copied over the "Tour" section, and reformatted
by hand. This did not take very long. I don't know where
the images are, so I did not put them in.

See
http://bitpim.wiki.sourceforge.net/

I think the easiest way to get the doc converted will
be a combination of script and manual conversion.
The hardest part of the conversion is the tables,
so that should be done by script.

Stephen,
Does your script convert tables? Wikispaces uses
a double or-bar || to separate columns.

What I need is:
1) tables converted
2) first cut at text for "phones" section (format does not
need to be perfect, just approximate format containing all text)
3) images

Wikispaces is pretty weak on overall functionality
compared to MediaWiki, but it seems good enough
to get a nice looking and easy-to-navigate document.

(It turns out that wikispaces does support table of
contents ... you just need special tag in the source
saying you want it.)
