Thanks Syan for experimenting with this.

Would be interesting to know whether a second-stage addresses any conversion of formatting e.g. as specified at
http://salaam.homeunix.com/twiki/bin/view/TWiki/TextFormattingRules

Problems I note so far:

- link syntax
- - forced links:
----> TWiki supports the format [[Make a Link]] which renders the page to display "Make a Link?" which TWiki can use to calculate, and issue, an acceptable file name.  [[Make a Link]] can be used on any page without having to provide the precise name of the wiki topic as saved in the file system. This reduces tedium while enabling more natural on-screen language.

I saw no MoinMoin support for the above, so such links, for example
- [[What can I actually DO with GnuMed today ?] and
- Ian's "[[Forms]]"
could be a problem.

- - specific links:
----> Twiki lets you create a link where you can specify the link text and the link reference separately, using nested square brackets like [[reference][text]]. Internal link references (e.g. WikiSyntax) and external link references (e.g. http://TWiki.org/) are supported.

MoinMoin permits specifying alternate link text only for external references.

Anchors to internal topics like
[[GnumedManual#AdministratorGuideInManual][AdministratorGuide]]
therefore do not work
