 ## MoinMoin converter features
 
- * lots of macros are not translated
- * a bunch of markup and exotic uses of parsers will probably fail? 
+ * most of the inline markup
+ * links
+ * attachment links
+ * smileys
+ * images (not well tested), into [[ikiwiki/directive/img]]
+ * preformatted and code areas, including [[ikiwiki/directive/format]]

+ * TableOfContents, through [[ikiwiki/directive/toc]]
+ * Navigation, partially, through [[ikiwiki/directive/inline]]
+ * MonthCalendar, partially, through [[ikiwiki/directive/calendar]]
+ * FootNote, through markdown

+ * `<<BR>>`, through the weird line ending thing
+ * AttachList, through a weird [[ikiwiki/directive/inline]]

+ * Include, partially through [[ikiwiki/directive/inline]] (so missing boundary extraction and heading level generation)
+ * PageList, throuhg [[ikiwiki/directive/inline]]
+
+Supported parsers:
+
+ * the main "moin wiki" markup
+ * highlight parser, through the [[plugins/format]] plugin
+ * other parsers may be supported if an equivalent plugin exists in Ikiwiki (example: [[plugin/rst]])

+## Current blocker and todos
+
+This script is being used to test the conversion of the venerable [Koumbit wiki](https://wiki.koumbit.net/) into Ikiwiki, and so far progress is steady but difficult. The current blocker is:
+
+ * inline parsers and hackish styled tables
+ * turn categories into tags
+ * name converted page to the right name depending on the `#format` parameter on top of page
+ * finish a full converter run on the Koumbitwiki
+ * improve the output of the converter (too much debugging)
