1. Graphics (you knew that was coming !)
To determine feasibility of this, can you give me
an idea of the size of a potential graphics archive ?
An incremental snapshot would almost be mandatory for
this, I think.
Well, the *German* images sum up to ~1GB, so the English ones /might/

2. A daily SQL update for the main page.
This will give it a newsy feel, instead of talking

available, but ... tough.
There are wikipedia "offline readers" under construction - my
"Waikiki",
and a "WikiRover". Both use their own rendereing software and a sqlite

database. Nothing definite so far.
