0) Summary `mwxml2sql' checks the `mediawiki' version, and aborts if out of the range 1.5 through 1.21. This is a show-stopper. I posted a patch for your review. I should extend the upper bound to version 1.24. 1) Version (shell)$ mwxml2sql --version mwxml2sql 0.0.2 Supported input schema versions: 0.4 through 0.8. Supported output MediaWiki versions: 1.5 through 1.21. 2) Patch <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/139413/> Sincerely Yours, Kent

Ah, I just came to say this. :)
Ariel: Any chance to review the 20 lines patch in Gerrit?
Dear Sirs, 1) Database Schema Currently, MW 1.25 is being deployed. Can someone tell me if the database schema for MW 1.26+ is known at this time? If so, where is the information posted? If possible, I would like to get ahead of the curve. Otherwise, we file bug reports every six months. 2) XML Dump format I understand that the XML dump format will soon be updated to version 0.10. See <https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72417> and <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/168583/>. This will also impact `mwxml2sql' which currently supports versions 0.4 through 0.8. Sincerely Yours, Kent
That sounds like questions for https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l instead of this bug report.

*** Bug 72886 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
0.10 is merged now, and will be going live on Wikimedia sites as of Wednesday
Dear Sam, XML dump files are still being generated using schema 0.9. 1) Need XML dump using schema 0.10 Do you know when (or where) I can have an XML dump file using schema 0.10? I would like to patch `mwxml2sql' right away; but I need an XML data dump file using schema 0.10 in order to test the patch before posting it to gerrit for review. 2) Patch ready for schema 0.9 I have ready a patch that brings `mwxml2sql' up to schema 0.9. I am using for production in-house. Should I post it now, or should I wait until I can bring it up to schema 0.10? 3) Usage of `mwxml2sql' The previous question is motivated by a growing apprehension that I may be the only person using `mwxml2sql'. Is there any way (e.g. analytics) to determine the usage of `mwxml2sql'? Would you know if anyone is in a position to say which dump import utilities are best supported and most widely used? Sincerely Yours, Kent
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Export/Main_page will give you something in the 0.10 format That is the point of the XSD files - So you know what format it will be :)
Change 171976 had a related patch set uploaded by Wpmirrordev: Extend maximum allowed mediawiki version to 1.24 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/171976
Dear Sam, 1) Patch for schema 0.10 I just submitted <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/171976>. It actually squashes two patches together (one old, one new). `mwxml2sql' can now handle mediawiki version up to 1.24 (old patch), and XML data dump schemas up to 0.10 (new patch). 2) Usage of `mwxml2sql' I still would like to know if anyone else is using `mwxml2sql'. Is there any way to determine this? Sincerely Yours, Kent
