Yes, the "TombRaider" version is exactly the version I want for static
HTML.
Just curious, is
pages-articles.xml.bz2<http://download.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20090713/enw…
like
a "TombRaider" version? If not, what's the difference?
And another curiosity, at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:TomeRaider_database, it says the
English Wikipedia database is only 3.3GB. Did they use compression? That
seems awfully small. Even if they did, that's an incredible compression
ratio, similar to 7-zip, I don't know how you can do that on a eBook format.
NTFS compression only brings size down 50%.
