Hi Marc,
please excuse my late reply.
I am very happy to see that porting is going on on new volunteered projects.
Now I am interested if your patches went into the openZIM trunk. Then I would
like to see a package from you which we can put on our download page for
other users.
Are you interested to work on that with us? If so I suggest to you to sign up
for our developers meeting:
http://openzim.org/Developer_Meetings/2009-2
The vote for the best date is still open:

Greets,
Manuel

Hi all!
Since an offline encyclopedia is most valuable on mobile
devices, I worked on building ZimReader for the Openmoko
Neo.
As a start I did a native build on a Debian (hackable:1 [3])
driven Openmoko Freerunner. After fixing some minor build
issue ([1], [2]), I can now browse Wikipedia offline on the
phone.
ZimReader performs amazingly well on the limited resources
of the device. I use it in conjunction with woosh, a browser
that comes with hackable:1. The content resides on SD-card.
A full-text search takes around 5s, mostly even less.
Since I'm not too much into packaging, I wrapped up a tar
ball for those interested in binaries [4]. Please see the
Readme for installation instructions.
Note: The binaries will most likely _not_ run on OE-based
distributions (OM2009, SHR). They have only been tested
on hackable1. I'll try to supply packages for other distros, as
soon as I find the time.
Thank's a lot to the openzim team for their great work!
Cheers, Marc
