New subject: [openZIM dev-l] Kiwix index size

6 Jul 2009

I have answered to Rotem about the links. I have also open a bug on the Kiwix side:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2817440&group_id=1…

For the search engine index size, we have to search a solution with a smaller index.
Starting with the openzim solution should be good.
I will have a look during this week.
