De trem
The golden times of the Express of the East had passed and today the access of train to Turkey suffers with the slowness and the competition from the modern buses and cheap flights. Still thus, it is possible to arrive at the train country. Of the Europe, it is arrived Istambul of Belgrade (23 hours of trip), Bucharest (20 hours) and Tessalonica (15 hours), of where it is possible to change of train for other parts of the continent.

The pricipais connections with countries of the Middle East come of the Syrian and the Ir�. The trip of train of Tehran the Ancara can lead about 60 hours.

The company of Turkish Railroads is the national authority of railroad transport.

Circular
Turkey is a great country, with more than 1500km of east the west, and valley the penalty to take in account these dimensions when planning the form of if moving for the country.

The biggest Turkish aerial company is T�rk Hava Yolları (Turkish Airlines), that it flies for all the regions of the country. Its main competitor is Onur Air, that she has lower tariffs. Other company of low cost [includes the Turk-German http://www.sunexpress.de/ Sun Express], Atlases Jet and Fly Air, that also vende tickets in the agencies of the post offices connected to the InterNet.

Some localities do not have daily flights for Ancara or Istambul. The tickets normally can be bought by the InterNet, in the domestic terminal of the airports or in the store of the proper companias.

In any trip, it also considers the value of the transport of the airport for the city, therefore they can significantly increase the cost of its day.

De barco
Hizli feribot is boats in the style catamaran, that connect some cities, as for example, Istambul with the other side of the Sea of M�rmara. They are sufficiently fast (50-60 Km/h) and can reduce the trip times sufficiently. For example, leaving of p�er of Yeni Kapi in Istambul (soon the southwest of the Blue Mosque), you can reach to less otogar (terminal road) of Bursa in two hours, being of one dedicated hour to the maritime trip the Yalova. Sevi�os similar operates more binding to some parts of Istambul to the Asian side or the places above in the B�sforo. The presence of this type of fast boat if has spread for all the country, where it wants that if it can sail.

De carro
The minimum age to direct is 21 years and is necessary to carry, beyond the passport, the international permission to lead, the documents of the automobile (if they will not be in the name of the conductor, is necessary a power of attorney) and the policy (automobile insurance) of insurance with visible symbol TR. To who it comes of the Middle East, she is necessary also to have the call ticket license ("Carnet of passage"). The vehicles can remain in the country for up to 6 months.

The circulation rules are sufficiently similar to the ones of Brazil and the Europe, but frequent they are disrespected by the local inhabitants. It is not uncommon to see changes sudden of band and, in the cities, 4 rows of cars stopped in a signal of transit with only 2 bands. You alert short with the horn they are frequent and they only serve to inform to the other drivers whom somebody has there. The speed limits are of 50 km/h in urban perimeter and 90 km/h in the roads. The use of the security belt is obligator for the driver and all the passengers.

The highways, in general, are tarred, conserved and served for ranks of fuel and restaurants well. The signalling, however, is not frequent, the illumination is imperfection and the amount of accidents is high. In the interior of the country, it is common to have that to divide the slow roads with the local population, wagons and other vehicles and without illumination, what it increases the risk of nocturnal accidents.

For who it prefers to rent an car, it has offices of the main companies of alguel in the airports and the cities most important.

De táxi
They are obliged to use the taximeter. Normally tip for the taxistas is not left - convenient, to round off the value for top.

Em dolmush
Dolmush was, originally, taxis shared, but today they remain few of these in some cities. Most common they are vans (turkey hens, micron-bus) that they operate in fixed routes and they charge in accordance with in the distance that you will cover. It ahead informs to the driver its destination and pass the money with the contribution of the other passengers, who will be able to ask for the same of you. In the hour to go down, the driver alerts so that she stops.

De autocarro/ônibus
Turkey has an excellent net of bus interurban calls. The buses are comfortable, have conditional air, private armchairs e, in the generality, good services, especially in great the company.

To otogar (road station) of the main cities they have bus frequently leaving for practically any destination. Beyond the driver, the buses have ��oecomiss�rios of bordo”. In the trips longest, as a driver it assumes the direction when the first one if tires. During the trip, they are offered drunk gratis, snacks and are made stops to each two hours and stocking, approximately, in good restaurants to the long one of the roads.

The more the east of the country, less frequent the buses if become, but exactly places more remote as Dogubeyazit or Van has lines for localities the hundreds of kilometers of distance. A village has of being really very small not to have a bus for Istambul or Izmir at least one time to each two days.

To find the bus correct can require aid. People in charge offering the services are always gifts and can help in the purchase of a ticket, but attention: to the times alone she has a line for the desired destination, but in some occasions, you she can finish seated while other buses for the same local leave while you wait. Therefore, if you she will have available time, she verifies the grating of arrivals and exits of other company. You also can say that she needs to leave immediately (uses the words "hemen" or "shimdy", or the expression "adjelem to var" �� "has haste), and the people will understand that you need to leave soon.

In the case to have some companies operating for the same locality, it looks for to know the size of the buses that cover the line. Generally, the greaters are more comfortable and some lines arrive to place discomforted vans (dolmus) operating in these lines. Another tip is to compare the size of the signboards normally �� "the companies with more bus and routes also have the biggest signboards. If it does not surprise if, the way for some strange and more distant destination, you has that to go down of the bus, to apanhar its luggage and being transferred to another bus, what ��oediretas” or ��oeexpressas” can occur even though in routes. In these cases, the other bus goes ��oecomprar” you and to take it it its destination.

To the times the buses of long distance will be able to release it in some next road ring to a city, instead of taking it it the center, therefore, it does not leave to ask if the final destination is in the center of the city. On the other hand, much company has "arac servile", vehicles that lead to the center when the Otogar is in the periphery of a city, what nowadays it occurs frequently. In the cities as Ancara these vehicles are shared by some company, and a fleet of them, leaving for the some parts of the city, will be to the wait. It would be useful to keep by hand its ticket to prove that you it was in a bus (the majority of these services operates, however, in the base of the good-faith).

The seat inside of the buses is determined, in part, for "koltuk numarası" - the number of the seat in its ticket �� "and part for the custom to seat together the women, the couples and thus for ahead. If it does not annoy, therefore, if to ask for to change to it of place. Generally, being an foreigner, you it will have the best seats.

A tip: although the last row of seats can be private driver-reserve to sleep it, normally it is better to catch a seat in the deep ones, any that is the number of its koltuk, and thus not to be importunado in the biggest part of the trip. This is especially useful when if it travels alone and if it wants to continue thus.

De comboio/trem

This form of negotiation is part of the local culture of purchase and venda and can cause a little of estranhamento to the travellers who are not accustomed (and that many times leave paying more the one than they would have).

Malocafamily Is a travel, information, entertainment and mobile destination guide that fits in your pocket.
Malocafamily is about combining easy to use hi technologywith Aruba hospitality. The concept of Malocafamily.com has its origins in the Aruban hospitality tradition. That tradition is steeped in the habit and experience of welcoming thousands of people over hundreds of years to a small Caribbean island some fifteen to eighteen miles of the coast of Venezuela, South America. Back then, they were the Caiquietio Indians. They are not only reported to have had a strong culture, but are also largely described as peace loving, family oriented people, with a strong tradition of welcoming and accommodating others into their homes. The Caquetios lived in oval homes, in which one or more groups of people lived, or at times several families. Such an oval home was called a Maloca and represented the center from which the essence of life in Aruba was experienced and shared. While Arubans no longer live in Maloca’s, we still wish to welcome you and assure that you feel at home. Maloca, our product, is thus our way of welcoming you into our family and allowing you to experience all that Aruba is. Today the Caribbean Island enjoys over 1 million tourists to its shores and the majority of those guests have been North Americans returning year after year. The idea of Malocafamily is to combine, lifestyle, social networking and must have accessible information in one handy device while on holiday.

The Maloca which is a pocket device – smartphone PDA – made, designed and deployed by a Caribbean based technology and consulting company called the Grendon Mcgregor Group, based in Aruba. It is Aruba’s official mobile pocket and destination guide and offers much more than a local telephone call home, when you are abroad, or locally when you want to reach friends or family in another hotel. The Maloca holds hundreds of possibilities when it comes to dining, water sport, cabaret shows, shopping, nightclubs, bars, events, personal services and more. Malocafamily and Maloca is a mobile tourism product and experience that is innovative for the Caribbean and interesting for the convergence of data, voice and data in the telecommunications market across the Caribbean region.

Mission

Malocafamily is about optimally supporting the visiting tourist that needs mobile services for communication, leisure and entertainment services. While on holiday they have all their needs, wants and informational requests in the palm of their hands, including the internet. Malocafamily is committed to providing an unrivalled mobile entertainment and telephony experience.

Vision

To make Malocafamily a viable lifestyle, entertainment, communication, information providing, marketing platform and marketable service in the world’s most exciting travel and entertainment destinations. By constantly adjusting and having our eyes on the market and innovation, this self-branded product will become a must have for every visitor that seeks affordable communication while on vacation.

The world famous Bunaken Marine National Park, with an area 75.26 hectares, is located very close to Manado and comprises of 5 islands: Bunaken, Manado Tua, Siladen, Mantehage and Nain.

The superb diving and snokelling sites puts the Marine Park in one of the top 10 dive area of the world and is a mecca for seasoned and beginner divers alike. Wall diving offers a spectacular drop off 100's of meters deep and the warm water is particularly inviting.

But it is for the diversity of sea life to be found around the Park that attracts divers from around the world. Whether you are a fan of big pelagic fish down to the smallest anemone, whatever your fascination, you certainly won't be disappointed. For those who are avid underwater photographers be sure to bring countless rolls of film, photo opportunities abund.

The variety of fish and other marine life often spotted include: Napoleon Wrasse, Angelfish, Turtles, Blue Ribbon Eels, Stingrays, Eagelrays, Snappers, Groupers, and sharks to name a few. There are hundreds of other species too numerous to list but easily located at a variety of sites.

There is now a number of professional dive operators in and around Manado with well-trained staff and a commitment to safety. Accommodation is available at most dive operations and full packages including equipment hire and meals are extremely competitive.

I have lived in Japan (Mie Prefecture) now for a number of years, have been afforded numerous travel opportunities, and have thus learned a great deal about optimal ways to experience Japan - not just the major destinations but also cities and nature spots on the road less-traveled. I will attempt to share these insights and expand the pages of places I know a good deal about.

Photos from my various journeys can be seen on my Flickr page

I am a native English speaker from the US and can understand written and spoken Japanese very well.

Hello. I'm currently resident in Maputo and have been here for two and a half years. I've seen lots of changes in Moçambique such that pretty much anything that gets written about Moçambique goes out of date almost before it's published! (This is a good thing!)

I'll take advantage to put in a shameless plug for my website at www.billos.ca. Feel free to consult that for photos of Mocambique.

Mozambique is a freindly safe country and developing very quickly. Come on over before it's discovered by Brad and Angie!

A visit to Africa may result in your becoming afflicted with a malady for which there is no known cure. ..

The condition has afflicted many people over the centuries. Some of them were great explorers, others great physicians. Way back in ancient times it had already been identified and given a name, “malum africanum”, by the Latins, today known as “Mal d’Afrique” by the French.

There is no escape: no known remedy. They can now join those born with the condition in Africa and help fashion its image in a culture that aims at a fullness of human dimensions, good to serve as a global one.

The symptoms are extraordinary. The scope of our vision changes and you become preoccupied with distance, far horizons. At the same time you notice small things, subtleties that previously seemed irrelevant – shades of colours more noticeable than the colours themselves.

Your hearing intensifies; mechanical noises offend you as never before. You detect melodies in the trickle of a stream, hear voices in the rustling of leaves. The things you do in life become less important than the things you see, feel, and can touch.

And then the smell ! The smell of life in the first rain falling on and fertilising the arid soil and making it bloom with green grass and life-sustaining crops.

In the African bush, far away from surroundings you are accustomed to, you feel as though you have come home. Some say your spirit recognises the birthplace of its origin, others say you feel an overwhelming presence of the Creator in the scope of communal life.

In this country which abounds with nature, we have the most wonderful story to tell and yet we don’t tell it. God is exposed in this land. It is as though God mixed the ingredients of the earth here.

The San people with their symbolic paintings realised that and left us a message. But few of us understand it. There is something that can only be described in mystical terms.

This something is the mystique of Africa and the malady to which you have succumbed - mal d’Afrique, a grace given only to those who have accepted to be truly human by living their lives in that African way.

-Noel de Villiers in African Panorama

About Myself:

Recent University graduate planning to travel around Asia before settling in a full-time job, like they say once your in a full-time job its impossible for you to find time to travel.

HotelsCombined has hired me to help spread the word about things to do in countries and cities I visit. You can see a list of hotels in Macau, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Their engine searches for hotels rates across all major travel websites. It’s the most complete accommodation list I’ve come across for this area.

=Macau=

I am looking to travel to the following countries China, Hong Kong, and Macau, since basically they are all China yet unique in their own ways. China is just plain old China, Hong Kong with their British influence and Macau with their Portuguese influence. The budget for traveling will be tight since all the money for this trip will be from my part-time job during university. I plan on visiting Macau first since they call it the Vegas of the east, I decided this as the first stop because I might be tempted to gamble all my money left over if it was the last stop for my trip. The main strip of the Macau peninsula is lined with casino and hotels that stunning, most people visiting Macau are here to gamble especially Hong Kong residents since it only takes an hour by ferry between the two. While others are here to experience the beautiful Portuguese architecture left by the Portuguese influence which is prominent throughout Macau was my goal was since I cannot afford to travel to Europe. I planned my trip using useful information from the Macau Government Tourism Office which has useful information on Macau and Hotels Combined for hotels around Macau which would suit my budget. At the top of my must see is the Ruins of St. Paul, Temple of A-Ma, Kun Iam Statue followed by museums. You could say Macau is so small and actually you will be able to visit nearly every inch of Macau in one day, however you will not since their is so much to see in Macau since the Casino in Macau are truly amazing and will take up most of your time trying to visit each and everyone of them and the shopping in Macau is also simply amazing bargains everywhere to be found.

=Hong Kong=

The next stop for me was to catch a trip to Hong Kong, so I decided to catch a ferry and wanted the cheapest price I can find, I found that Turbo Jet provided the best deals for me, if you really want to save money make sure you plan your trip and secure tickets, since ticket prices vary depending on the time you decide to take a ferry. I also needed to find a place to stay in Hong Kong before arriving in Hong Kong or I would be walking from hotel to hotel looking for a place to stay. A sites that were useful to help find hotels in Hong Kong was Discover Hong Kong which is provided by the Hong Kong Tourism Board. It also had a lists of attraction and things that could be done while staying in Hong Kong.

=Taiwan=

After visiting Hong Kong I decided to make a stop over into Taiwan to visit some friends. It was not planned on my next itinerary however I was presented with a great deal when my friends from University that live in Taiwan offered to pay half of my airfare. Even though my friends live in Taiwan I needed to make sure that I would not break any Laws in Taiwan and researched what I needed to enter Taiwan as well as not breaking any laws by visiting Taiwan's Governmentsite. I also researched for the best and cheapest place to stay at while in Taiwan and found a few nice hotels, even though my friend offered me their lounge. I then booked a flight to Taiwan with EVA AIR, the flight would only take about one hour just about the same time form Macau to Hong Kong by ferry. So since I was in Taiwan I planned on visiting as much of Taiwan, starting with the worlds second tallest skyscraper the Taipei 101.

Taipei
First of many stops that I took while in Taipei, I was simply amazed at the sheer size of the Grand Hotel, the design of the hotel was simply stunning so simple yet so majestic this was reinforced when the hotel was lit up at night. I then went to the National Taiwan Museum to check out the library to see if they libraries in Taiwan was similar our ones, this also provide an insight of how different cultures have different views on the importance of education. I was amazed at the amount of people that were in there.

Hsinchu
Next stop was Hsinchu the oldest city in Northern Taiwan where my friend went to university at National Tsing Hua University before he studied abroad. The university was nicely designed and open which provide a good environment to study in. The transportation was exceptional good since there are extremely efficient bus serviced by hcbus right in front of the main gate that takes you straight to the trains. I asked my friend why there were so many hotels in Hsinchu even though Hsinchu was not a tourist spot, and he replied most people that come to Hsinchu are here for conference or business and leave straight after it has finished. Following on a quick stop at Taoyun where I went and enjoyed a day inside the Chung Cheng Aviation Museum which was an amazing site since they have an array of aviation history was breath taking.

Taichung
Driving from Hsinchu to Taichung was quite trip but made fun with a few of my friend stopping over in Miaoli, we ended up picking some amazing pieces of artwork on the way through. We were on a deadline to reach Taichung since we were heading there for a friends birthday at meeting them at Papa Mia Italian Restaurant, since she hasn't had Italian food for quite a while since from returning from overseas. We decided to that after the birthday party we were going to Fong Jia Night Market to look for some bargains before calling it a night. We had a huge day planned, first on the list was National Museum of Natural Science, followed by Taichung Winery so we can relax before we can admire the amazing artworks in National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts.

Hualien
I then proceeded to Hualien where another one of my friends lived and always say he is from the best city in Taiwan. I guess he is right I was amazed at the location right between Pacific Ocean and the Central Mountain Range. He wanted me to visit Hualien County Cultural Center to learn about the history and customs of Hualien, What I saw was quite remarkable the craftsmanship that was put into creating these sculptures at the Hualien County Stone Sculpture Museum which was located inside the center. He then asked me if I would like to join him on a Whale tour expedition I declined his offer since it was quite cold that day and also the fact I do not know how to swim was another factor. So for the rest of the time in Hualien I decide to enjoy the amazing scenery and food that they had to offer

Taitung
After a nice stay in Hualien I decided to head south along the coast not know my destination since I wanted to be surprised, I fell asleep in the car an by the time I woke up i was already in Taitung. Upon reaching Taitung my friend pull up into a hotel in Taitung, since he was quite tired from the drive. So the next day we headed to National Museum of Prehistory to learn more about the history of Taiwan.

Hello everyone!

I used the information from Wikivoyage for the first time in 2006. Since it helped me in my travels, I think it's about time for me to give something back. For the moment, I may focus only on places I visited or know really well.

Although I am a Czech (Pardubice is my hometown), I currently live in Brussels.

Sai Village 佐井村 is in Shimokita, Aomori, Japan.

Understand
Sai Village is located on the northwest coast of Shimokita Peninsula in Aomori Prefecture. It borders the Tsugaru Strait, and is mostly a mountainous region. The areas within Sai include Ushitaki, Fukuura, Chogo and Isoya. It is a quaint, quiet village with breathtaking scenery of both mountains and sea.

Talk
English is not spoken. You will need some Japanese to get around, or at least a dictionary and some gestures. However, the Tourist Information Center in Mutsu can understand english if spoken slowly and simply. They can be helpful for booking things for you.

Shimokita Peninsula speaks shimokita dialect which is a mixture of tsugaru dialect, nambu dialect, and some local words.

Get in
Sai is accessible by car, bus, or ferry.

From Mutsu
From the Shimokita JR station in Mutsu, take the Shimokita bus heading to Sai. The bus ride takes about 2 hours and costs about 3000 yen.

Alternatively, you can rent a car. If you plan on exploring the gorgeous scenery, I highly suggest renting a car. Shimokita is not well connected by public transportation and the distances between towns are far. To get to Sai by car, follow the 279 north all the way to Oma where it intersects with the 338. Turn left (south) and follow the 338 into and through Sai. The drive is about an hour and 15 minutes.

From Hakodate
Take the Donan Ferry. The Donan Ferry makes three runs a day between Hakodate and Oma. The ride is about an hour and 45 minutes. A return trip ticket costs about 4000 yen. From Oma to Sai is a 2000 to 3000 cab ride or about a 500 yen bus ride.

From Aomori City
Take the Sii Line ferry. The Sii Line ferry makes two runs a day between Aomori and Sai stopping at Fukuura, Ushitaki and Wakinosawa along the way. The ride is about 2 hours and 20 minutes.

From Tsugaru
Take the Mutsuwan ferry. It makes three runs between Kanita and Wakinosawa a day. From Wakinosawa, you can catch the Shimokita bus or take the Sii Line ferry directly to Sai.

Get around
Walking is fine for exploring the town, but to see the breathtaking scenery, renting a car or taking a ferry ride are highly recommended. The ferry ride is chartered at Arusasu, the community center. The ferry can take you to Hotokegaura and around the sea shore. A car will allow you to view the mountainous beauty that Sai has to offer. Narrow dirt mountain roads beckon the adventurous 4X4 riding traveller.

Do
Hotokegaura is located in Ushitaki and is the main attraction to Sai. It is a collection of odd rock formations that have sparked people's imaginations. People claim to see shapes and faces in the rocks that resemble Buddhas. The azure sea reflects off their surface creating a surrealistic atmosphere. One can easily spend an afternoon exploring them and watching the magnificent Japanese sunset. Hotokegaura can be accessed by car or chartered ferry.

Gankake is a large boulder overlooking the sea that is known for it's view from the top. It is also a popular swimming spot and has changeroom facilities available. It can be found on the way to hotokegaura.

Nuidoishiyama is a large mountain in Fukuura. Hiking to the top is a popular activity as the whole village and other mountains can be seen. Be sure to bring the bear bells at the bottom of the mountain to ward off any wildlife.

Events
In the middle of September, Sai puts on a festival. Floats are pulled by the locals and the priests from the shrine bless the houses of the village. The Kagura is also performed.

In November, Sai puts on a culture festival. Different variations of festival songs and Kagura are performed at the community center.

In February, Fukuura village puts on a kabuki show. It features northern styles of kabuki and is performed one day a year.

In June, Sai has a sea urchin roe festival. They sell fresh sea urchin roe on rice and people can eat it while shopping.

Eat
As Sai is located on the Tsugaru Strait, fishing is the major economic staple. Some of the locally caught seafood include sea urchin roe, sea pineapple, scallops, abalone and squid. Sai also has a shitake farm that sells to local markets.

There are only a few restaurants in Sai. Most are located in Arusasu, the community center. Poppiez, is a lunch restaurant and can be found in Arusasu. They have pizza and pasta Japanese style. Across from that is a restaurant owned by the same person, but offers Japanese fast food like ramen, tonkatsu, and ebi chilli.

There is a ramen and gyoza place open in the evening that can accomodate a couple of people at a time. It's located near the bars beside the bridge.

There are several other restaurants that require reservation and are usually for large groups of people. Umaimonya is a restaurant across the street from Arusasu that can provide meals if they have been informed in advance. Isokawa, Miyano, Manjaya and Hotokegaura Drive-in in Fukuura are other Japanese restaurants available for large groups.

If you are staying at a cabin, the only grocery stores are in Oma, so be sure to stock up before coming to Sai.

Drink
Other than restaurants, there are only two bars in Sai. Inaka (Seating capacity of up to 5 people at a time) and Sta. Both places have karaoke.

They are both located across the street from Arusasu. Inaka is in the 5 floor building and Sta is across from it.

Sleep
The Gankake cabins is the main place to stay. There are other bed and breakfast type places in Sai and Fukuura.

Other destinations
Oma town is a 15 minute (2000-3000 yen) cab ride away. Oma is famous for it's Maguro Matsuri. In October, they catch a large tuna fish and butcher it for auction. The best slices of sashimi have been known to sell for 50,000 yen. Omazaki is the northernmost tip of Honshu and on a clear day, Hokkaido is visible from it. Oma is also the gateway between Hakodate and Shimokita. The ferry takes about an hour and 40 minutes. It is convenient to come to Shimokita through Hakodate airport.

Ohata town is a 30 minute drive away or an hour bus ride. Ohata is notable for it's outdoor public hot springs, Yagen. In the spring, sakura trees line the road through Ohata. Around 5:00 you can catch a squid race in town. Squids are raced and bet on like horses.

Higashidori is a farming town about an hour's drive away. Notable for Shiriyazaki, the cape on the west side of Shimokita Peninsula. Wild horses roam free through the fields and you can walk pretty close to them without frightening them.

Mutsu is the nearest city and is an hour and a half drive from Sai.

Contact
Mutsu's tourist office (Masakari Plaza, tel. 0175-22-0909), near the Mutus bus terminal, is helpful and can provide basic information in English, not just for Mutsu but the entire peninsula. They will also book accommodation for you.

Hi there!

I fell in love with Wikivoyage upon first sight. Or, to be quite honest, I even loved it from the moment I heard about it. I reckon it is still quite far from a complete travel guide, even for many major destinations, but I have already gotten much help from here. Contributing feels rewarding in a strange way, although it is indeed time consuming.

I stick to the English version, unless someone asks me to have a look at some other language. Since I live in Fortaleza, Brazil, most of what you find about this city is my work. As I found out about Project:Docents, I decided to accept the challenge for my new home town. I have drawn a number of maps on city bus routes, but don't have time nor skill to turn them into a format acceptable for Wikivoyage. Feel free to help ;)

Any question can be e-mailed me: marius.mollersen@gmail.com

Otherwise have a look at my site:

Hi. I'm Maria Packman. I live in Madurai, Tamil Nadu's historical cultural center. I'm a fellow of the Advanced Tamil Language Program of the American Institute of Indian Studies. My special interests are classical Tamil poetry and the Seeratpuranam of Umaru Pulavar. I've travelled throughout southern Tamil Nadu in addition to Sikkim and India's major metros. I currently am making plans for trips to Ladakh, Sindh (in Pakistan) and an extended trip throughout continental Southeast Asia and southern China.

I speak (in varying levels of proficiency) Tamil, Japanese, Yiddish and Arabic. I have an AA in Japanese from Foothill College in Los Altos Hills and a BA in South and Southeast Asian Studies from Berkeley. I'm an irregular columnist/feature writer for various Sindhi-language papers in Pakistan.

My hobbies include reading (particularly translations and cultural studies), eating unusual food (whale, anyone?) and getting at least 15 hours of sleep a day. I also do needlework, write experimental prose and can occasionally be convinced to slap up some paint and assorted other junk on plywood/scrap metal/drywall and call it a mixed-media composition.

I didn't get much chance to travel in my childhood and am now trying to make it up in my early adulthood. I hope my contributions can help others in their excursive activities. My current project is the Madurai article.

The script mvs uses a CVS inspired interface. This seems to work pretty well, but there's always room for more improvements. Patches are most welcome as are suggestions, complaints, and of course kudos either on the talk page for this page or at the mailing list www-mediawiki-client-l@geekhive.net.

Arch
There is an arch repository available at http://mark.sdf-eu.org/arch

If you're new to Arch but you know CVS, then it's pretty easy (although the documentation makes it seem hard). To check out a working version of the code you can do this:

# the equivalant of exporting a CVSROOT: tla register-archive -f mark@sdf-eu.org--arch http://mark.sdf-eu.org/arch tla my-default-archive mark@sdf-eu.org--arch

# the equivalant of doing a cvs checkout: tla get WWW-Mediawiki-Client--0.25 WWW-Mediwiki-Client

The code currently in the Arch repository is for the newest release 0.28

Release 0.27
The newest version 0.27, includes the following improvements:

 * Preview functionality (dump to file or run web browser) - from Adrian Irving-Beer

 * Re-Add the ability to handle multiple files and recursion for updates. - from Adrian Irving-Beer

 * Using Special:Export page for faster updates and less load (uses XML::LibXML, but could easily use a lighter SAX parser). - from Adrian Irving-Beer

 * Change to Getopt::Long to support options anywhere in command. - from Adrian Irving-Beer

 * Support for automatic handling of text encoding on the Mediawiki host - Mark Jaroski

TODO
Here's a TODO list of things I have in mind to do to improve MVS from here (I'd love to see other ideas):

 * Check for code 3xx redirects and try to reset the wiki_host value to the correct host to which we are redirected. (target: 0.28)

 * Add a flag allowing the user to choose whether to proceed with commits if not logged in. (target: 0.28)

 * Add a command to return a diff between the local version and the server version. (0.28)

 * Use of "Special:All pages" to return a list of every page in the host wiki

 * Image handling, upload and download of images

 * Add a commit comment editor

 * The ability to access data from robots.txt for use by programmers using the library to create Mediawiki bots

 * Multi-file commits which respect the delay between uploads as specified in robots.txt

 * Win32-Perl support

 * A *nix GUI (this could be done as an outside project)

 * Win 32 GUI (possibly like tortoise CVS or tortoise SVN)

 * A Vim plugin supporting mvs

 * An EMACS macro supporting mvs

 * A KDE Kate plugin for mvs
