When I asked Jimmy Wales about the possibility of an offline edition
of Wikipedia for parts of the world which do not yet have good access
to the internet he mentioned that a German company was bringing out a
DVD of the German wikipedia. He also mentioned that the license of the
content does not prohibit any publisher from putting out an offline
copy and the reason why there were few such publications was the fear
of a publisher being sued for libel.
