Some guys in my company created mang pages the names of which are like "How:Do:You:Do", "How:Are:You". When converting these pages, I got a "DoYouDo" page and a "AreYou" page in the "How" sub web. So I got many subwebs like "How". But in fact we don't have so many namespaces in
MediaWiki. It seems the addon mistook part of a page name for a namespace. Is there any way I can get it work correctly? Thanks!

The colon
is the separator for namespaces in MediaWiki. This is mapped to webs and subwebs converting the content to TWiki by default. So using colons in the name of a MediaWiki page was quite bad in the first place. Anyway. You can correct this error while converting the data by implementing a plugin for the conversion tool. See the
Empty.pm example plugin (in the
lib/TWiki/Contrib/MediaWikiToTWikiAddOn/ directory). The handler that you need to implement is called
handleTitle(). It takes a page object and returns a
webname,topicname tuple.

Hello
There are some dependencies
Can't locate Unicode/MapUTF8.pm in @INC

There's a bit of a problem on
FreeBSD. It seems the GNU 'du' has a '-b' option whereas the
FreeBSD 'du' does not and throws a lot of "du: illegal option -- b" warnings. Adding GNU coreutils and editing Converter.pm to use gdu fixes problem.

Images previously displayed in-line come in as attachments, but the in-line image tags seem to be in the
MediaWiki format, versus being converted to TWiki format. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a fix for this?

Thanks for the great plugin! Works great, I combined the
MediaWikiTablePlugin to support the tables and the
ImagePlugin to support the %IMAGE% tag for in-line images.
