Description

So now we have two wiki's:

Different software (MediaWiki vs Redmine), different markup language (i.e. text formatting conventions), and different structure ...

That last bit is the killer: we can't just convert and transplant all of the previous pages. Well, we could, but then things will remain very hard to find and use.

For the LAOS mainboard v0.3, I started from scratch and pulled in the different pieces where possible. It's not perfect, but I think it's a decent start.

For the LAOS I2C Panel v0.3, I just translated the entire page via Pandoc, dropped the first and last parts of the converted output, and manually converted the table on that page, since Pandoc will copy it as plain HTML. This page is not yet in good shape.

I suspect that we'll be better off converting things the hard way: picking all the pieces apart and placing them in the new structure, creating pages supporting that new structure as we go along.

The magnitude of the task ahead is scary!
