A detailed workflow of Malayalam wikipedia CD is documented here (in
English).
http://shijualex.in/creating-malayalam-wikipedia-cd/
\\A) Whether we can include all the non free content on CD?\\
For non-free images we need to meet few criteria. See this for details
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content#Images
But I found some of the images currently tagged as non-free in Telugu
wikipedia will not fall under fair use license. For example this
image<https://te.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B0%A6%E0%B0%B8%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%A4…pg>.
As mentioned in the above blog post it is better to include only
Free-Licensed images in the CD. See the section "*STEP 3 – Verifying the
license of the images*" in the above blog post. To be on the safer it is
better to include only free images from Commons in the CD.
\\B) Whether WMF/WMIN will approve the use of Wikipedia Logo on the
> cover?\\
Yes. Ask WMF/WMIN. For the recent release of the second edition of the
Malayalam wikisource CD also Malayalam community took permission from WMF
to use logos. It is advised to get permission before using the logos in the
CD.
\\C) Any other precaution/disclaimers that need to be included on CD to
> prevent any legal dispute in future.\\
Yes. This is very important. See the section "Step 6 – Creating content for
copyright, disclaimer, and other supporting pages" in the above blog post.
