	For each Trac wiki that you would like to migrate, you have to create a new empty MediaWiki. I ~~won't~~ explain all the details here, but instead, I'll just say that I first followed [http://mechanicalkeys.com/wiki/index.php?title=Install_MediaWiki_on_CentOS_6.4 this], and then, when I realized that this recipe was valid for a single MediaWiki, I moved to [http://sharkysoft.com/wiki/how_to_configure_multiple_MediaWiki_instances_on_a_single_host this] one, that seems to me easier and closer to what I want.		For each Trac wiki that you would like to migrate, you have to create a new empty MediaWiki. I will explain all the details below.
