Hi
For the first time, we have achieved to release a complete dump of all
encyclopedic articles of the Wikipedia in English, *with thumbnails*.
This ZIM file is 40 GB big and contains the current 4.5 million articles
with their 3.5 millions pictures:

This ZIM file is directly and easily usable on many types of devices
like Android smartphones and Win/OSX/Linux PCs with Kiwix, or Symbian
with Wikionboard.
You don't need modern computers with big CPUs. You can for example
create a (read-only) Wikipedia mirror on a RaspberryPi for ~100USD by
using our ZIM dedicated Web server called kiwix-serve. A demo is
available here:

Do this for other sister projects perhaps.
