This is a long shot, I know. When we converted to MediaWiki from MoinMoin in 2008, pages were imported, but history was lost. I often like to go spelunking in the past, and it's often frustrating to hit this barrier.
As I recall, MoinMoin stored everything in flat files, so it wouldn't even really need to be stood up again to get a look at the history. If someone happened to keep it, that is. Is there any chance we have a tarball snapshot of the wiki circa 2008?
yes. :) Dennis located a copy we still have.
Let me contact you out of list with a download link. ;)
Oooh! Can I have it too? It might help me extend the Wikitcms History back even further...
Sent information to download off list.
(Probibly it would be ok to just put it somewhere public, but I am not 100% there is not some stuff like username/passwords or the like in it)
