===== MoinMoin =====

==== MoinMoin Itself ====

[[http://moinmo.in/|MoinMoin]] is a "fairly mature" software package.

  * Our installed release is the latest release, [[https://github.com/moinwiki/moin-1.9/releases/tag/1.9.11|1.9.11]].
    * The [[https://www.freshports.org/www/moinmoin/|FreeBSD port]] is marked deprecated due to its reliance on  the obsolete[[https://www.freshports.org/lang/python27/|python 2.7]].
  * The next release has been announced to be [[https://moinmo.in/MoinMoin2.0|2.0]].  See the [[https://moinmo.in/RoadMap|RoadMap]].
    * However, note that no release date is scheduled.
    * There will be a possibly nontrivial effort to convert our contents to the new codebase.  %%MoinMoin%%'s own development documentation is unclear on this.

==== Alternatives To MoinMoin ====

If, in the future, we decided to migrate the content to another wiki package, the cost would be quite high.  Apparently the markup that [[/MoinMoin|MoinMoin]] uses is ... //interesting//.

=== MediaWiki ===

Migration to %%MediaWiki%% could be done, but it sounds painful.

  * [[https://www.mediawiki.org|MediaWiki]]'s [[https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MoinMoin|MoinMoin to MediaWiki]] article contains the following scary note: ''%%There are a number of hacky scripts for this. They are all defective in various ways - anyone who does this job does it precisely once. %%''
  * The [[https://dev.w3.org|w3.org]] [[https://dev.w3.org/2008/moinmoin2mediawiki/README.html|Moinmoin to Mediawiki migration Manual]] does not sound cheerful, either.
