Is it possible to get one of these to test the Kiwix offline Wikipedia on? Would be interesting to do some usability testing during the India Hackathon.

Some confusion, I think, about what constitutes value for money. A badly put together device that has every possibility of failing, and does not have sufficient battery life to get through the school day, is not value, it's a waste. Small comfort that it's a waste of 3k instead of 37k.

Will the Chapter consider doing this? And the India Office too? Maybe
we can ask CC-India as well and CIS too?

I'm a a little confused: the wording says IP will reside with MoHRD if the project is funded by this Mission, whereas afaik, no MHRD funding at all, never mind this mission, has come to any part of the Wikimedia community in India. There is no question, therefore, of copyright being 'vested' with them, and we only need make this clear in the representation.

It should in addition be made clear, therefore, that any content taken from any Wikimedia project, including Wikipedia, comes with the appropriate CC copyright.
