So, I've seen the TomeRaider format downloads available for
en.wikipedia.org and ilk, but I'm wondering: has anyone done any work
on making Wikipedia (or, uh, other MediaWiki-based sites (*cough*
*cough*)) work with Plucker?
http://plkr.org/
I haven't used it, but it looks real real cool, and it's Free
Software, too. So, y'know. Free and stuff. As in Freedom.
Anyways, I have some ideas for doing Plucker stuff with Wikitravel,
and I wanted to see if I'm treading over old territory. I think that
the TomeRaider stuff is pretty cool, but it's kinda heavyweight.
Because travellers usually have some inkling of where they're going,
they don't really need the world-wide travel guide: just the articles
for their destinations. I think for Wikitravel we'd want something
like a "Plucker version" link next to the "Printable version", or
something similar.
Anyways, just testing the waters.
