Bom me sentir como não sendo o único com idéias parecidas ^^<br><br>Em resumo, em 2010 eles lançaram uma versão offline da Wikipedia em malaiala; agora foi a vez do Wikisource (mais alguém se lembra que a Wikimedia não é só Wikipedia).<br>

<br>O contexto fica ainda melhor se lembrarmos que esse é um dos idiomas nativos da Índia, em contexto similar ao do Brasil no que se refere a avanços dentro da Wikimedia.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">---------- Forwarded message ----------<br>

collection of free books in Malayalam language available on CD for offline<br>
