Hi,
There is an underdevelopment extension that converts MediaWiki
markup to OpenDocument Text format (.odt)
Extension:OpenDocument Export (Release status: beta)

Do you think it might be useful, to consider a two-step conversion
process, using XML as the intermediate step? That is, instead of "ODF
<==> Wiki", we could have "ODF <==> XML", and "Wiki <==> XML".
@TJ: That is a beautiful implementation.
But, I am afraid, it might not be useful, I think.
The advantage I see is the division of labor. Both groups (MW and OO.o)
would likely see those transformations as, "not very efficient, but
relatively simple". Neither group would have to deal with each other's
oddities, only their own.
I can agree with lesser amount of labor. But its complexity and less
reproductivity might make it less interesting, though.
Possible user scenario which I probably want to have for the
interoperability between OpenOffice.org and MediaWiki:
(Writer to MediaWiki)
1. On writer, select a portion of or entire document and copy it.
2. Ctrl-N to start an empty Writer document.
3. Ctrl-Shift-V to paste special with a choice of MediaWiki format.
4. Ctrl-A to select all and copy it.
5. In a text field of MediaWiki, paste it.
(MediaWiki to Writer)
1. Click on a special link next to 'Edit.'
2. OpenOffice.org automatically starts and draws the target page
or section in a web browser.
3. Select it and copy it.
4. On Writer, paste it.
Regards,
Tora
