If we could make a html or google doc with the urls of the content included
in IIAB, it could be helpful for people like us who do not need
everything(like the french content) but would like to integrated selected
content.

Clarifications:

   - Swahili and Kinyarwanda are included in Internet-in-a-Box 2.0,
   providing offline educational materials in 11 languages total.  In service
   of the many committed grassroots communities OLPC has spawned around East
   African countries like Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda.
   - Many more materials exist that could not quite fit on these 1TB disk
   drives, so please write if you can help evolve these learning content
   archives/ecosystems for your own language and region -- we expect to re-mix
   the more compelling content offerings increasingly often in future, now
   that increasingly high-quality science videos are being donated, for very
   free distribution.
   - Several installable images for XSCE school server software are also
   included.  If you want to install one of these, please check web sites
   http://schoolserver.org and https://github.com/xsce/xsce first, if at
   all possible, since the long-awaited XSCE 6.0 will be released very shortly!
   - A future compilation (Internet-in-a-Box 2.1) will most likely be
   released in coming months, including many more of your great suggestions~

Hi Bishnu,

 

Actually if you use xsce, there is a graphical user interface that will allow 
you to select by language all of the wiki type content from the url Adam 
mentions and download and unzip it to a location where the kiwix server can 
render it. In your case, since you have your own server, you could use xsce as 
a staging machine to make life easier.

 

For OSM, Anish has freshly generated India and Nepal and can give you a link.

 

Tim

At lot of this content would be quite large in static html, so kiwix.org have 
compressed it into a file format called zim which is then rendered by their 
kiwix server which is either proxied by apache or accessed directly.  Apache 
alone is not sufficient.

If you already have an (apache) webserver running, is there an option to serve
