Feel free, as long as the Iso file contents are not altered. Http://www.Mlwiki.in also links to some useful Malayalam computing resources and will act as the home of the malayalam wiki cd project and iso download link is available in the site as well.

Thanks.

As mentioned in my previous mail, here are the details of the new software that we have developed for creating the Malayalam Wikipedia on CD.

Here is a small contribution from Malayalam Wiki community to the Wikimedians of all language. Even though we have developed this software for creating the Malayalam Wikipedia CD now you can use use it to create CD of any language Wiki.

There is huge effort that went behind the creation of this software and the CD. I will blog about that once I am back in Bangalore.

Here are the details of the software: Name of the Software: Wiki2CD Developed by : Santhosh Thottingal Software source: http://github.com/santhoshtr/wiki2cd Documentation: http://wiki.github.com/santhoshtr/wiki2cd/ Blog link about this software:http://thottingal.in/blog/2010/04/17/ mlwikioncd/

This ia a small step forward. We know that if community effort is involved this can be developed into a feature rich software with multiple features. Here is the link to Download the Malayalam Wikipedia CD: http://www.mlwiki.in/mlwikicd/img/MLWikipediaCD-2010.iso The online link of Malayalam Wikipedia CD: http://mlwiki.in/mlwikicd/

My special thanks to Santhosh Tottingal and all the Malayalam language Wikipedians.

More details about this efforts at a later time.

Excellent work, Santosh. I read the README and the documentation. I think for most requirements, we can simply reuse the program. Even if some customisation is needed, we can modify the code, I think. Restricting it to just one namespace, for example.

Please add this project to http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Static_version_tools if you have not done already.Also let http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Walkerma know about this. He's one of the core members of the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Version_1.0_Editorial_Team and had a lot of experiences to share in the last Wikimania.
