Hi
After almost two years since the last release, the new libzim is out: http://www.openzim.org/download/zimlib-1.3.tar.gz
This new release brings a few improvements and bugs fixes: * FIXED: zimdump crash with long filenames * FIXED: few portability issues * NEW: method to get real file offset of article in ZIM * NEW: smarter article cluster building (+5% compression) * NEW: one pass writing process (instead of two)
These improvements allow easier: * new bindings (like node-libzim) * new features of the ZIM format, like integrating the fulltext search index * creation of more ZIM files (speed-up ZIM creation)
This improvements have been done by a few developers mostly during our Kiwix hackathon @Wikimania Esino. This has been made possible with the support of: * Fondation Orange * Wikimedia CH * Wikimedia Foundation * Bibliothèque sans frontière
