I have added the Sun Wiki Publisher extension to my Windows installation and It adds a "to MediaWiki" entry to the File/Send options. If clicked it opens the dialog box looking for the wiki URL and username and password however it does nothing with the information which is what led me to believe that the API changes from AOO 4.0 had not been added to the extension. That they hadn't would make sense since the last time it had been uploaded to the extension site was 2009-09-06. Does the extension code that the FreeBSD port builds and installs actually use the information and create the a page on the wiki based on the document it is run against?
