Summary: CRC check

Downloaded ZIM files are unfortunately not always fully valid at the end of the
download stage. Consequently users may have a bad user experience without
having a chance to easily check if the file is valid.
It would be great to provide in the zimwriter/zimlib a way to check the zim
file integrity easily.
A way to achieve that could be:
* At the end of the ZIM file creation process (file is created) compute and
append at the end of the file a CRC (md5sum, sha1)
* In the zimlib add a method checkIntegrity() or something similar able to
compute the CRC from the file (excepting the CRC hash at the end) and make the
comparison.
Hash algorithm should be fast and reliable (md5?).

Great!, and the extension has been approved yesterday by Mozilla.
I have many questions about this process. I'm a little confused. I do
not understand the selection process for quality and forgive me if you
are not the best position to know.
Steps to a WP version 1.0 in Spanish.
1) WP 1.0 bot makes a list of articles that should be with the ID
article. (Articles are selected by various criteria, in this case, a
general-purpose encyclopedia with the greatest number of articles)
2) WikiTrust select the best version for each item. (id version) (What
is needed Firefox plugin if it is done automatically)
3) Now we have a long list of items with your id better version.
4) The list is sent to create a file OpenZIM ZIM. (This happened and
what will henceforth I understand)

*Update on Offline Wikipedia Projects *
The last week was a big week for expanding offline Wikipedia
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Offline_Projects> work.
Right now, /offline/ refers to supporting read access to Wikimedia
content without an Internet connection. This increases the reach of the
Wikipedia movement by providing more opportunities for people all over
the world to access the materials. Some of the recent initiatives
surrounding this project were documented in Wikimedia's tech blog
<http://techblog.wikimedia.org/2011/01/update-on-offline-wikimedia-projects/>
about a month ago (for more detail regarding the purpose for offline
work, see the offline strategy
<http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Offline> page).
In support of our offline readership work, we're thrilled to announce
the launch of a new feature on Wikipedia developed with our partners
from PediaPress <http://pediapress.com/>. Last week we enabled openZim
<http://openzim.org/Main_Page> (the main file format in which offline
materials are stored) export for the existing PediaPress collections
extension on English Wikipedia and numerous other wikis. This means
that individuals can now use the existing PediaPress Create a book
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Books> tool and download it in a
format which can be read offline (via an offline reader, such as Kiwix
<http://kiwix.org/index.php/Main_Page>). This is important because it
opens new avenues for the creation of offline materials, for example, an
openZim library hosting different offline "book" options.
Also, the English offline collection Wikipedia 0.8
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Version_0.8>was made officially
available
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Version_0.8/downloads>, after
much hard work by the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Version_1.0_Editorial_Team>.
This collection is an iteration in the process of developing a vetted
collection of offline articles selected based on their quality and
topical importance. The main constraint with an offline product is the
data size restrictions: the entirety of Wikipedia must somehow be
condensed so that it fits on a CD, DVD, or USB stick. Wikipedia 1.0
aims at creating the highest quality and most valuable subset of
Wikipedia to meet those size requirements, and v0.8 is a precursor.
Wikipedia 0.8 is a general collection of just under 50K articles, It
is available for Mac, PC, or Linux with a Linux or Okawix reader; some
mobile phone versions will be available later this month as well.
More updates are sure to come on this offline front: Wikimedians around
the world are actively assisting in the development of offline
collections as well as distribution. We are excited to support and
document the momentum going forward.

Hi Jessie,
your mail today reminds me that I still owe you an answer to another
mail you sent me days ago. My apologies, I am rebuilding / moving
currently and don't have internet at our new home, so my volunteer
activities are currently limited to a few minutes I can spare during my
office work.
Concerning the Offline Workshop:
It was my intention to include all those interested in the topic. I call
it a workshop because I'd like everyone who can contribute (eg. the
parties you have listed) to be active and not only part of the audience.
We have done a workshop like this last year in Gdansk where three
different sessions have been submitted and we (the submitters) stuck our
heads together and made it one bigger session. This has been openZIM,
Kiwix, WP1.0 and the team of the Malayalam Wikipedia-CD.
This year we have several plans for Wikimania which haven't all been
planned completely yet due to lack of time but I like to lay them out to
you, so you can see where the Foundation can kick in:
* openZIM Developers Meeting on August 2nd / 3rd (part of / in parallel
to the Wikimedia Hacking Days)
* Developing Nations workgroup meeting on August 2nd
Emmanuel / Kelson who is part of the openZIM team is also the developer
of Kiwix and part of WP1.0 and he will be at Wikimania 2011. openZIM is
sponsoring the travel to Wikimania for our developers and the
participants for the Developing Nations workgroup meeting.
I am pretty sure that Martin A. Walker will (as he did last year)
participate in our workshop. He is the head behind the WP1.0 rating tools.
So far from my side.
I could need support in announcing the openZIM Developers Meeting and
the Developing Nations workgroup meeting. Contact person for the latter
is Rupert Thurner (Wikimedia CH).
Regards,
Manuel

Hello Offline Community -
I just wanted to direct your attention to the offline portal on the
meta-wiki that is to be used to track all offline projects! It can be
found here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Offline_Projects. The goal
is that this becomes the central place where all the offline materials
and lessons learned will be codified and available for access.
There are a variety of ways to contribute to the site (which is
certainly still WIP) - whether uploading guides, content, processes,
contacts. In particular, I wanted to solicit help in populating a map
designed to capture where all the offline distributions have taken
place. Right now we have little idea the full landscape of offline
deployments, and it would be great to see this!
A Google Map
<http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=2004448215665451857…>
was set up to track these deployments [1]. There are a few examples
already on it, but for each location we would basically want to include:
* Number of offline distributions: (i.e., #computers)
* Number impacted: (e.g., # of students + teachers)
* Content: (e.g., "Wikipedia for Schools")
* Language: (e.g., "English")
* Contact: (e.g., "Jessie Wild" (or usernames))
* Other/Notes: (if applicable)
If you need help populating the map, please let me know, and I am happy
to send instructions on how to do so.
Let me know what questions you have! And please do contribute to the
wiki in whatever way you think is most valuable: reorganizing, uploading
content, data, etc.
Jessie

Hi,
we have always more different ZIM file available and need ways to
identify/differentiate them quickly.
For this reason I think this is important to use if possible something
like a Web favicon in ZIM file.
The modifications I propose are:
* URL should be /I/favicon.png
* increase the minimum size to 48x48 to be able also to display
correctly in list of content.
The topic was triggered by the implementation of the new Kiwix content
manager, have look to the mockup here:
http://www.kiwix.org/index.php/File:Kiwix_dlmanager_mockup2.jpg
Remarks?
Regards
Emmanuel
