xowa is a new, open-source, offline wiki application. It imports directly
from the Wikimedia data dumps, and shows articles in an HTML browser
window. It can also download and display images.
v0.5.0 is a general rollup release. It is intended to be stable.
These are the changes since the last announcment (v0.4.0):
* Wikidata #property tag (Phase 2)
* Wikidata JSON structured data formatter {contributed by Schnark}
* Score extension for music transcription through lilypond
* Improved Scribunto support for 2013-04 / 2013-05 English Wikipedia
* MediaWiki-like Categories (command line install only)
* JavaScript injection prevention
The files are here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/xowa/files/v0.5.0.1/
As always, any feedback is appreciated.
Hi,
A first version of Kiwix for Android was released a month ago. The app
was warm welcome with around 2.000 total installations and 1.000 active
ones.
An average note of 4.25/5 were given in 25 feedbacks. Almost no bug were
detected and people simply want more features.
We have released a few hours ago a new version fixing the only one bug
we have detected and providing a few new features:

We need new Java developers to implement features like tabs, bookmarks,
navigation history... More details in the bug tracker:

Beginners are welcome, stepping in is almost trivial, everything is
explained step by step in the COMPILE file:

Dear upstream-tracker.org,
My name is Micah Roth. I am a contributor for Fedora working on getting
Kiwix, an offline Wikipedia reader, packaged for our repos. I would like to
register zimlib, which is the standard implementation of the OpenZIM
library, for tracking on upstream-tracker.org. zimlib is required for Kiwix
to function.
The project's website is http://www.openzim.org/wiki/Main_Page
Please let me know if you need me to do anything else. I have notified
upstream about this registration in IRC. They requested that I cc their
mailing list.
Thank you,
~Micah
