Folks,
I scrape the vtk.org wiki site each evening to maintain the vtk wiki
examples. I have a python program that uses mwclient
(https://github.com/mwclient/mwclient) that uses the MediaWiki API.
Ever since the vtk.org page was updated, my nightly scripts have been failing.
The error are occur on this line:
site = mwclient.Site('vtk.org', '/Wiki/')
If I change vtk.org to itk.org, my scripts work.
I suspect some sort of web magic going on. I can workaround the
problem but specifying itk.org, but I'd like to understand what
happened just in case the itk.org site changes in the future.
Thanks,
Bill
