Nanoscale printing of Wikipedia
by Federico Leva (Nemo) 18 Nov '12

18 Nov '12

Some people are trying to «printing all of Wikipedia onto 6-inch nickel discs [...] 270 discs, each about 1mm thick». <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28techni…> They "only" need all the articles in raster image format, they say. I think their safest bet would be to take an HTML/ZIM dump and then use one of the many tools like http://khtml2png.sourceforge.net/ to get a PNG or other image format, but it would be nice if some of you could give some better informed advice.

Dear Emmanuel, I compared each of the dependencies of WP-MIRROR 0.4 against recent Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 12.04 Precise - has most dependencies, but not MediaWiki 1.19. Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal - has all of the dependencies. Please try (or have a friend try) to install WP-MIRROR on Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal. Sincerely Yours, Kent

Dear list members, I am pleased to announce the release of WP-MIRROR 0.4. The main design objective of this version is this: WP-MIRROR 0.4 should work `out-of-the-box' with no user configuration. The web page <http://www.nongnu.org/wp-mirror/> has been updated. Feedback is welcome. Sincerely Yours, Dr. Kent L. Miller
