Hey,
I just heard about XOWA <http://xowa.org/index.html> via a lifehacker
article
<http://lifehacker.com/xowa-makes-it-easy-to-download-wikipedia-for-offline-…>.
I haven't seen XOWA mentioned on these lists too much (it hasn't had a
subject line on "Offline-l" in over 2 years), so thought it was worth
highlighting its existence and checking in.
Is there anyone who works on XOWA who would be willing to share any
feedback on adoption or known use cases? I was just talking about offline
desktop with Anne G. and we were speculating as to where and when this was
valuable.
Best,
Jon
Congratulations on this important milestone. Is there a branch or tag that refers to this release?
