correction– script does work. mediawiki was throwing internal server errors and “password is too short” due to the test account’s password being the same as the username. the db inserts were then failing half way through with blank password entries.
these changes don’t work for me using wp2.6. the user_password fields in MW are blank and logins fail. will update if i find a solution.
script links both dead. jondavis, you should consider releasing what you made. would be helpful.

i’ve been wondering about this too.
wordpress doesnt lend itself to multi-application sites very well.
you could do some crazy htaccess redirects, i guess.
