If the new MediaWiki opens/converts the old tables and works, that's
fine, we can live without SoftwareIndex and then upgrade it.
But if we loose the wiki, we need probably to think a two-step upgrade.
Make an older (how old?) virtual machine, get things working and then
upgrade MediaWiki.
Keep us updated.
