Hi Tomasz,
I've pushed the code to
https://github.com/cip/zimgap-android.
Note that the only functionality is currently to load an article from the zim
file and display it.
In particular there is no search functionality, so you have to know the exact
article name to open it.
The reason is simply that I am currently focusing on the feasibility, and I
expect that the main issues are related to loading
an article and and not related to searching the index.
Best regards,
Christian

Awesome work Christian. Where can we find your code to test out?
If you don't have a place then I'll carve one out in our depots.

Hi Emanuel,
Makes sense that images are not compressed in zim file again, thanks for the
clarification.
In particular for windows mobile this increases the probability that with
reducing the cluster size
a sufficient performance is achieved (i.p. if there was a better way to display
images than in android, but I haven't looked into this).
For android I still expect that it it will be better to use a native library.

Images should not be compressed in ZIM files for the obvious reasons
they mainly are already compressed. This is the case for all ZIM files I
made. As far as I know this is also the case for Mediawiki:Collection
build ZIM files.
