Hi Emmanuel, and the offline team,
This is great news, and I really appreciate all your efforts.
I am in talks with the Ministry of Education in Zanzibar and they have shown some
interest in the Zanzibari schools using the offline Wikipedia. Most probably, they might
want be to go and install the offline Wikipedia in their schools in September. That being
said, is it possible for you guys to release the final version by then? BTW, since they
are Swahili speakers, we'll also use the Swahili version.
I understand that it may be difficult for you to push the release date forward, so if you
think that it's not possible to do so; it's fine with me :)
at least the Swahili Translation should be possible - as far as I have
been told by Siebrand he has set up Kiwix on TranslateWiki during the
Fundraising Summit in June.
Kiwix User Interface translation to Swahili is trivial (with or without
TW... we are still in the middle of the migration). Just contact me if
ths is important.
Same for the content. I have already made a ZIM of WP in Swahili:
http://download.kiwix.org/zim/0.9/wikipedia_sw_all_04_2011.zim.torrent
But if needed, I may made new ones...
So, both content and SW localisation are details for me. This may be
done pretty easily. That's the reason why I forgot to answer to this
point. Sorry about that.
