The port of MediaWiki is going well: it is certainly usable, and
is already being used by a number of sites. I would not say it is
quite "competitive" yet as far as being ready to run Wikipedia, as
the codebase has a lot of very mysql-specific stuff that has yet to
be fixed/coded around. There are also a few lingering bugs, most
related to the fact that the MediaWiki on Mysql stores dates as
char(14).
For the record, anyone using wikipgedia deserves the pain they
get: it is deprecated. The latest version of MediaWiki itself is what
should now be used: it will detect if you have Postgres upon
installation. :)
