Is it possible to import a Confluence xml dump into Mediawiki? If so, any guidance will be appreciated.
Thanks for you assistance!

Confluence is another wiki software tool. atlassian.com/software/confluence/overview. We are looking to migrate to MediaWiki (server related issues). Thanks

Did you made any progress on this or choosed another solution? I ended up considering the same option after a failed upgrade to Confluence 5 (from 3) which annoyed people due to the losing the wiki syntax and due to the system instability. Surprise, we discovered that there are no performance tests for the latest Confluence as Atlassian decided to change them one year ago but nothing was released in between. So, as a customer you may end-up in a very difficult situation because it is very hard to test the (in)stability of Confluence.

There is a converter from Confluence to Twiki:
http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Plugins/ConfluenceToTWikiAddOn
and converters from Twiki to MediaWiki:

Here are a few markup translation tools:

Still working on if this is a solution or not, but....
- from confluence export the space, as HTML
- then using https://github.com/svick/LINQ-to-Wiki
- spider from the created index.html page from the confluence export
- and insert new pages into MediaWiki
god help me if this works (I despise mediawiki)
