[Foundation-l] Project to create offline-wikipedia DVD distribution

[Ángel]

Hello Shantanu
You should really look at the work I did about offline wikipedia.

The presentation:

Some samples:
http://www.wiki-web.es/mediawiki-offline-reader/

*Same kind of compression, based on bzip2 blocks, but with the result on
just one file.
*My index is binary, not csv.
*Using MediaWiki to create the real html, not a python parser.
*The app acts as both client and server.
*No install needed.

I'd be happy to talk with you about all of this.

Best regards
