Hi MK Yadava -
Thanks for passing along this email!
I am the project manager for the Offline Wikipedia work. I'm very
interested
in supporting your efforts in content circulation, and I am eager to learn
more about your project referenced below. Who are you distributing your
computers to? What sort of software are you looking for? Where exactly are
you hoping to distribute?
Thanks so much; I'd love to help out with this as much as possible!

Dear All,
Sounds great! If we have sizeable content for school children from
standard V-XII in humanities, science and mathematics in English alone,
it
will be a great service for bridging the digital divide. We shall be
glad
to put such a content in our PC distribution program and make it
operational by middle of September, 2011.
Regards,
Yours,
MK Yadava

Thanks Manuel!
I think this will be a good group. I just put together a brief
presentation
with kind of the general overview of Offline and how all the pieces
fit
together, but I can go through it quickly and
allow the different
pieces
to
fill in the blanks throughout?
I'm attaching it in case others want to take a look. I put it together
quickly so if there are errors please forgive me (and correct me!) :)
