Alex, Sounds like a fun project.
Yes large size media is often best transmitted by "sneaker net" on USB and it would be difficult to collaborate on those files directly however a big part of collaboration is active communication. So I am suggesting building into you zine have a online component. You could even create a Yammer group here https://www.yammer.com/tiddlywiki and invite participants to join, then your distributed wiki have a tiddler with that groups discussions embedded in it. I would also try and think a head a little, making sure your key tiddlers have a version number and you have a method for people to import changed tiddlers (Excluding your media) so you do not need to "put your sneakers on" for important but simple changes. In the past I did a lot of work on USB based wikis, my car for example has all its PDF manuals in a Wiki, which my phone/tablet can read with a slightly special USB OTG cable. have planned to USB enable a lot of devices by sticking low cost USB drives to them containing manuals, settings, firmware and even a log of troubleshooting undertaken.
