The rule of separation here is that it has separate upstream. > there's a Java MW XML->MySQL conversion utility > with somewhat different functionality that would be nice to get packaged > up too, and we can follow the same route for both of them. This also means that the conversion utilities do not require anything from the MediaWiki packages themselves (like the extensions do), and that they’re only useful for a small subset of MediaWiki users (those that indeed use MySQL instead of a database). Which confirms that. In case you *do* need something to be changed in the core mediawiki* packages in Debian, of course this is the right place to go. (And maybe one of the other readers will show interest in those packages – just I don’t.) bye, //mirabilos -- tarent solutions GmbH Rochusstraße 2-4, D-53123 Bonn • http://www.tarent.de/ Tel: +49 228 54881-393 • Fax: +49 228 54881-314 HRB 5168 (AG Bonn) • USt-ID (VAT): DE122264941 Geschäftsführer: Boris Esser, Sebastian Mancke _______________________________________________ Xmldatadumps-l mailing list Xmldatadumps-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/xmldatadumps-l
