  PMC Attic is not the custodian of stuff in wiki.apache.org/.
  If/when infra/board removes them, it is formally no concern
  for PMC Attic.

  I volunteer to preserve (some of) the wiki.a.o texts ;
  in the manner I sketched earlier,
  in case an atticked projects gets a restart.

Hi Sebb,

  If you want to save more/differently,
  or convert the wiki.a.o to cwiki,
  so much the better ; just say so.

Subject: Attic projects Moin wikis are going away

Per Infra, the Moin wiki.apache.org system is going away in May.  That
means a lot of older wikis will be deleted (i.e. gone from our servers).

Are there any attic'd projects that had notable content on their old
wiki that anyone wants to try to preserve?

A partial list of wikis going away (i.e. ones that people cared enough
about when created to manually list them on FrontPage) are:

 https://wiki.apache.org/general/FrontPage

   In attic I see :

     site/xdocs/projects/avalon.xml:    <moin/>
     site/xdocs/projects/devicemap.xml:    <moin/>
     site/xdocs/projects/harmony.xml:      <moin/>
     site/xdocs/projects/hivemind.xml:    <moin/>
     site/xdocs/projects/lucy.xml:  <moin/>
     site/xdocs/projects/rave.xml:    <moin/>
     site/xdocs/projects/shale.xml:    <moin/>
     site/xdocs/projects/stdcxx.xml:    <moin/>

   [ the '<moin/>'s generate refs to wiki.apache.org ]

   It would be easy to dump the HTML-content somewhere with :

     wget -r -np -l100 http://wiki.apache.org/avalon/
     wget -r -np -l100 http://wiki.apache.org/devicemap/
     ...
     wget -r -np -l100 http://wiki.apache.org/stdcxx/

   Avalon is only 9 MB ; I haven't tried the others.

Doesn't this also capture all the Help pages in all languages and
various system pages?

I think it would also be useful to capture the raw and possibly also info pages.

Also attachments potentially.

   To show them online would require some work :

   -- internal refs are like "/avalon/...." ;
      so it would only work in httpd vhost ;
   -- re-add style sheets etc
   -- add caveats etc

Alternatively/additionally, the pages could perhaps be migrated to CWiki.
That would solve the display issue and hopefully attachments etc.
