Hi Wilfredo,

welcome to the openZIM development team.

Thanks

I just saw that you also added yourself as attendee of our planned Wikipedia Offline session for Wikimania 2011 in Haifa.

I hope to attend

Very good!

Do you have any specific needs, ideas or similar for openZIM?

I remember seeing you in a presentation at Wikimania last year, this seemed interesting. I have been following very closely the project openZIM since I was Zeno. I think it is a fundamental piece of the puzzle to spread the encyclopedia in remote or third world countries. If it was not because I need to work on other things to eat, I dedicate it entirely.

Although not a openZIM and wmf mission. I would like to see a centralized place to download ZIM, and is supported by the Wikimedia Foundation.

I have decided some time to work hand in hand with Emmanuel, he is a very committed to the project and with a clear vision of what this project and its implications.

Linterweb is currently working on a ZIM reader for Android using Java, the biggest problem here seems to be that there is no XZ / LZMA2 library for Java available. Asaf tries to fix that by porting it from C++ to Java: http://github.com/abartov/LZMA2-java

I think it can be used LZMA SDK, this includes java LZMA2 and XZ support ( http://www.7-zip.org/sdk.html). I think so. I think it is very important migration to Java. Many mobile devices using Java. kindle, Android based, Blackberry, etc..

I will retire to read the source code.

Good morning.

First of all I would like to introduce myself. My name is Wilfredo Rodriguez, I am writing from Venezuela.

I am a novice in openZIM, I'm just starting to enter the world of performance multimedia content.

OpenZIM I've been using for some time. I think it is important to standardize the format, this will bring benefits to all stakeholders.

I do not like talking about myself, but in this case is necessary.

I have 14 years experience programming. I specialize in Web 2.0 systems, I have a good level (ordered by experience) of c/c++/Ruby/Java/PHP/perl/lisp and many others. I can also get to do graphic design work fairly good.

I can understand very well English and French.

I am at your service

I hope to be of assistance in whatever they need.
