I gave this a quick go, after finding the real location of the tarball. The
result is at wiki.wolffelaar.nl, and the simple formatting works reasonable.
The result can be found at wiki.wolffelaar.nl, the (dirty) source at
http://www.wolffelaar.nl/~jeroen/kwiki2moinmoin

And, I noticed, selecting which pages to convert and which not to -- some are
pure spam.
Any help is appreciated -- improve formatting conversion, and finding bugs.
For bugreports and patches, please mail me privately or address me on IRC
(jvw). Once I'm reasonably content with the conversion, I'll prepare a tarball
for DSA to install on wiki.debian.org, and then the rest can be done by normal
wiki edits in cases where conversion went haywire.
