Note, that there is an XML dump format used by MediaWiki, but there is also an xml dump format used by mysqldump. Its unclear from your email which one of those you have. The previous people in the thread are assuming you're talking about a MediaWiki xml dump file, but if you are talking about a mysql XML dump file, things are probably going to be much harder to convert to sqlite. -- brian _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
