WikipediaFS - a Linux MediaWiki file-system

WikipediaFS is a Linux virtual file system that allows you to interact with Wikipedia as if it were a typical directory on your machine. This means you can view and edit Wikipedia entries with a normal text editor like vi.

WikipediaFS can be configured to work with any MediaWiki-based site, so this makes it a pretty powerful tool for maintaining your personal Wiki project as well.

Isn't this a bit too pre-alpha? The last release was June 22 2006 and except for one bugfix five weeks ago the SVN repository suggests no further progress.
I think it's a cool idea but could never get it running a few months ago..

Tried just now on gentoo, it just creates directories given in the XML file and nothing else. Am missing anything?
