Thanks Mike! No problems pulling a copy of the blew_skies website.
We should be OK on that front.
Reformatting the content... that's another story. It's a lot of
really old code arranged in hundreds of HTML files. Given a little
time I can probably automate some conversion. "Convert into what?"
you may ask... Well, a wiki program would be ideal. MediaWiki is
free and is also the engine behind Wikipedia. Uses standard PHP/MySQL
platform, so we should be good to go. Converting the existing HTML
pages into MySQL data elements will be a "fun" project. There is an
XML format described for importing to MediaWiki. A lot of text
manipulation may give me what I need to do a straight import. More
research is required and I will appreciate any help once I know what
the tasks will be!
Cheers!
