Bug#711158: ITP: mediawiki2latex -- Compile MediaWiki page via LaTeX to PDF

[Dirk Hünniger <dirk.hunniger@googlemail.com>]

Hello,
I am very happy that you offer to work together with me. But to be ones 
I think it will work. I appricate your work. But I am so bold to say 
that I think my program can do better. I use my program to make two pdfs 
for example.

And I didn't do any manual postprocessing in the latex code.

And I think you can not do that with your program. If I am right in this 
point it does make much sense if I help you with your program. And I 
also think you can not help me with mine since it is written purely in 
Haskell and Haskell is a very hard to learn programming language. I 
needed year for learning it. So I hope I didn't make you too unhappy 
with that email. I am nevertheless happy to hear from you.
Yours Dirk
