 I asked around at #mediawiki on http://freenode.net about [[wiki]] -> [[html]] conversion since there are hundreds of sites serving [[Wikipedia]] content as static html I thought that either all those sites invented the wheel for themselves or there is a freely available tool, and there is one developed within [[mediawiki]] development [http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/wikipedia/phase3/maintenance/dumpHTML.inc?rev=1.3&view=markup here is the .inc file] and [http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/wikipedia/phase3/maintenance/dumpHTML.php?rev=1.1&view=markup here is the .php file] (from the 1.5 alpha tree)
