	+ == Absolute first step == + Because this migration was designed to migrate from MoinMoin to Sycamore 0.1a, you'll need to have Sycamore 0.1a rather than the latest Sycamore. You can obtain version 0.1a by doing a checkout: {{{svn co http://svn.devjavu.com/sycamore/tags/0.1a}}}. This will be your basic Sycamore install, so set up 0.1a as you would normally before proceeding. +
