NGO Team: Areas with no connectivity

We want to help and support areas with no internet. This page will list TODO items and ideas be fore move actual solutions to the NGO/KnowledgeBase.

Offline wikipedia?
- http://www.moulinwiki.org/
- http://wwww.wikipediaondvd.com/
- http://schools-wikipedia.org/ (cuts back heavily on articles that are not appropriate for young readers)
- http://www.openzim.org/ The ZIM file format was created to provide a standard way to make webcontent offline available. Its major usage is to provide Wikipedia content offline, like in Wikipedia DVDs. The openZIM project is sponsored by [http://www.wikimedia.ch/ Wikimedia CH].
Project Gutenburg
- http://www.gutenberg.org
customised Live CDs
offline mirror
Ubuntu Add-on CD from already downloaded packages (Say from /var/cache/apt/archives)

We need to investigate D-STAR. This is a technology that can give you ~128Kbs via long range radio signals. Linux drivers exist.
