Thank you Quim. > A mention of Kiwix at mediawiki.org would help as well.

Federico created an entry here https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Kiwix. Jessie also started last year the creation of an ecosystem of pages on Meta to organise the offline related work, but this is now "abandoned". The Kiwix Web site itself is also not good enough. This is my primary focus (in communication) to improve it. We have newly a volunteer on Kiwix advertisement and he already has achieved a few things, I hope he will continue on this way and help us to better communicate. > PS: just curious, have you considered moving your repository to the > Wikimedia infrastructure? The WMF is already an essential part of our infrastructure and hosts the main mirror of the ZIM files http://dataset2.wikimedia.org/kiwix/zim/0.9/. This works perfectly. With the audience of the last weeks we face another issue, a lot of people do not download the ZIM files but the bundles (Kiwix+Wikipedia) which are not mirrored at the WMF. I plan to ask the WMF to mirror also these files in a near future.
