AcaWiki migration

Here is a list of things that I need to figure out so we can move AcaWiki over.


 * Install all the required extensions. See AcaWiki:Special:Version.
 * The wikae family uses common settings, and some of them might not be the same for AcaWiki:.
 * A different license is used, so we will have to move that setting into individual wikae; this is good, because I want to re-license my personal wiki. ^_^
 * I have to investigate how the merged user tables will work. It might be better to import the XML dump, rather than the SQL. That creates an entry for a user account, even if it doesn't exist, so they can just recreate it there and it will be attributed correctly.
 * Perhaps there is a way to pull over just the users, and merge them into the existing users.
 * How AcaWiki users (and user rights) fit into wikae probably the biggest issue. An angle I want to look at beforehand is how AcaWiki would migrate out, in the event that made sense due to getting huge or merging into another organization. Mike Linksvayer (talk) 22:58, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * We should determine who is an admin for the wiki; they won't have admin for all the wikae, but they can still wreck havoc on the user tables. I am not worried about it, but it does mean that in the future any other special hosted wiki will need to enter our trust. For the personal wiki I host, the owners are only bureaucrats. If this ever becomes an issue, we can take steps to break up group permissions per wiki (pain in the ass, but I will do it if it makes sense).

 * Files - I need to look up how to change the paths wiki-wide, and also how many we have to move over.
 * Not sure what this means. Mike Linksvayer (talk) 22:58, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

TODO

 * Mike, email me the LocalSettings.php (scrubbed of secrets), and any files it includes (in case extensions are loaded somewhere else, for instance). マイキ (talk) 04:22, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Sent. LocalSettings is extremely crufty, not sure it has anything useful as list of extensions already noted in Special:Version Mike Linksvayer (talk) 22:58, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
