Emmanuel,
Thank you for coming in.
*I would suggest that you highlight on the general steps/process involved in
creation of a ZIM file. (For very detailed topics I propose we give links on
the slides for those who would like to know more)
e.g. For the one we are about to compile for the Kenyan curricula,we were
requested to create a list on a meta page of the missing topics with the
corresponding link to an existing article on Wikipedia,then from there I
think you guys at the openzim project shall compile that then have the
downloadable copy availed.
* Could you shade more light on what goes on in between having the topics
from us and having the downloadable version online?
*Also,Kindly avail some information regarding the origin of the openzim
project,objectives,some merits and future prospects.
*I think six slides for the openZim project shall do us good.(any other
suggestions are also welcome)
And keep up the good work.
Truly,
Steve

I'll loop in Manuel in a new thread regarding
the best info to
present on Openzim and an overview of creating ZIM files.
what you need to know?
Yes, this is the point: especially how many slides? how detailed ?
Topics?
ZIM file generation is a wide topic.
I made the ZIM files (available here
http://download.kiwix.org/zim/0.9)
with scripts developed on my own (using as core tool, openZIM
zimdbwriter binary).
So I may also help if details are needed or if you want more
informations about the next developments I plan for 2012 in this area.
Emmanuel
