Hello,

I guess this isn't the most effective place to ask this question, but I 
suppose it reaches an audience who might also be wondering the same thing. 
What is the current situation around MoinMoin development, with respect to 
Moin 1.9 (which is noted as being the current production version) as well as 
with Moin 2.0 (which still seems to be in a rather fluid state)?

I was indeed trying to follow what has been going on with Moin 2.0, finding 
that the repository hadn't been updated for months, until I discovered that 
only the Bitbucket-hosted repository seems to be updated these days. I have 
had some vague intentions to port some extensions to Moin 2.0, but it appears 
that there are lots of packages I have to get from the Python Package Index 
(or whatever it is called these days), and my perception is that porting those 
extensions hasn't become any easier since I last looked. What is the current 
situation there?

As for Moin 1.9, I have quite a few patches that never made it upstream, and 
I've just spent a couple of hours looking at them again. Some of them can be 
found here:

https://moinmo.in/PaulBoddie

(Things like https://moinmo.in/FeatureRequests/EnhancedDiffsForRecentChanges 
are so useful that it just annoys me now when I visit a Moin site and have to 
look at individual diffs from a sequence of edits, or have to play with 
controls in the "info" page, when I can instead view the before-after diff 
from a RecentChanges link with that patch.)

Is there any interest in such patches or any other development for Moin 1.9. A 
while ago, I wondered if a Moin 1.10 would be helpful, but my impression was 
that this would be counterproductive and undermine Moin 2.0. So what should we 
be doing about this?

With the current fashion of people migrating their own hosted applications to 
dubious cloud providers with their own awful wiki implementations, I think 
that more could be done to demonstrate that Moin is both viable and 
preferable. Things like antispam protection could be usefully enhanced: this 
is probably one of the biggest problems (and most credible arguments to 
migrate away from Moin) that a bit of effort could meaningfully address.

What are other people's thoughts on such matters?

Paul

Subject: [Moin-user] errors when executing "moin maint cleancache"
Message-ID: <56BC60BA.5040203@gmail.com>

Hello,

I have moved my wiki content from Debian Squeeze (Python 2.6) to Debian
Wheezy (python 2.7, python-moinmoin 1.9.4-8+deb7u2)

I have removed the cache manually, by deleting files from

  data/pages/<PageName>/cache/

When I do "moin maint cleancache --config-dir=/etc/moin/
--wiki-url=https://mywiki.mydomain.org", I get following errors:

Could somebody please advise how to fix those?
