Downloaded ZIM files are unfortunately not always fully valid at the end of the
download stage. Consequently users may have a bad user experience without
having a chance to easily check if the file is valid.
It would be great to provide in the zimwriter/zimlib a way to check the zim
file integrity easily.
A way to achieve that could be:
* At the end of the ZIM file creation process (file is created) compute and
append at the end of the file a CRC (md5sum, sha1)
* In the zimlib add a method checkIntegrity() or something similar able to
compute the CRC from the file (excepting the CRC hash at the end) and make the
comparison.
Hash algorithm should be fast and reliable (md5?).

Sincerely,
Has decided to write this email to keep you informed. For the past two
months has begun a process of selection of articles. The selection uses the
same criteria used in WP 1.0. in English. The number of articles is about
30,000. The selection process will use the following formula sets:
Spanish WP beta = (A U B U C) - D
A = Selection of the first 30 thousand articles in order of internal
and external (<LANGLINKS>, <PAGELINKS> and <HITCOUNT>).
Select name, id_article from articles order by <LANGLINKS>,
<PAGELINKS>, <HITCOUNT> LIMIT 30,000
B = Spanish version of the list of articles included in WP 1.0 in
English. If there is a corresponding article in Spanish.
C = articles to be added manually.
For its encyclopedic value => good, quality articles.
D = list of articles to be removed. By different factors: sexually
explicit, controversial or controversial, violence and general audience
sensitive content
Additionally, WikiTrust extract the best version ID, ie the best version in
the history ID for each article.
Everyone is invited to contribute.
I am at your service.
The project contact is:
http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_en_CDhttp://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_en_CD/Taller
P.D. I have spoken to Martin A. Walker and Jessie Wild to help me through
the process of automatic selection of the first joint.

Hi folks in the education & offline content communities,
as you probably know, Kiwix is an offline reader application for ZIM
files, which are compressed content packages of Wikipedia content for
offline use. ZIM content packages include the "Wikipedia for Schools"
selection, the "Wikipedia 0.8" edition, as well as any arbitrary
collection of Wikipedia articles through the "Create a book" feature
on Wikipedia. As such, they have relevance both for use of our content
without Internet connectivity, and use within an educational setting
where there may be a desire to use specific selections of content.
An important conversation happening on the Kiwix development list (see
email form Tomasz below): How should repositories/feeds of content
packages be advertised? This connects to larger/deeper questions about
the future direction of our offline efforts, possible inclusion of
other educational resources beyond Wikimedia content, feedback
channels, etc. (I'll share some more detailed thoughts about those
issues soon.)
If you have thoughts re: this first spec (e.g. existing metadata
standards that would be useful here -- keep in mind this is highly
iterative development), feel free to comment here and we'll pass
through important conversations, or participate directly on the Kiwix
dev list.
All best,
Erik

Subject: Content manager feed format
To: kiwix-developer(a)lists.sourceforge.net
Cc: Erik Moeller <erik(a)wikimedia.org>
Greetings All,
Today Emmanuel posted the first version of the content manager feed
format at http://kiwix.org/index.php/FeedFormat. This is the first
draft of the XML (like) spec for anyone wanting to publish a feed that
Kiwix can understand. For those unfamiliar with the project its part
of our current efforts to build out a content manager as documented in
http://kiwix.org/index.php/WMF_UX_Improvement_Effort
Were looking to write and implement a spec within our current efforts
so that we can eventually have numerous content providers publish
content available to Kiwix and any OER tools.
Were especially curious to find anyone who's worked with atom and rss
feeds since this will share some similar attributes.
Please help us refine it by commenting and helping us get to our first version.

why not to use http://en.m.wikipedia.org/ instead of mobile.wikipedia.org . isn't that a batter version?

Hi all,
in a few minutes I will leave for LinuxTag, our yearly open source convention in Berlin where openZIM will be present again.
If you like to come please drop me a note, we have free tickets for you!
Another, really awesome news:
We have a new regular visitor in our IRC channel (#openzim on Freenode) who lives in India and is currently implementing the ZIM file format on Java. He was able to get a (official!) Java library for LZMA2: http://tukaani.org/xz/java.html
gremmachook (so is the nickname) is looking forward to make a dump of mobile.wikipedia.org (there are some issues here) and make it available on phones supporting J2ME (more or less all phones). The next step could be an Android application...
That's it for today,
regards,
Manuel
