(This doesn't work on the Fedora Wiki, which is MoinMoin 1.3.4)

Ok, it makes XML that builds into HTML. There are some very messed up <link>s going on, but those can be fixed manually. I'm not super-keen in the way it uses e.g. <emphasis role="bold"> to denote what might more properly be a <term> in a <variablelist>, and similar usages. These are format-oriented rather than being defined by their context.
I'm hoping that using xmldiff or a similar tool allows us to change the way the XML is done and not affect the translation. This way we can change the XML around the translations, on our own parallel schedule.
We need to do a proper clean-up, and note what it took. Refer to the FC4 release-notes module, the XML demonstrates the way it should be. I'm wondering if we -could- do a script for the clean-up, the Wiki is likely to be very consistent in the XML it creates.
