Le programme des volontaires Kiwix offre à des gens motivés et talentueux des moyens de travailler pour Kiwix pendant une durée limitée. Les contributeurs peuvent parler francais, anglais ou allemand. Les volontaires techniques devraient connaitre Javascript, CSS, ou autres langages Web, ou C++

(re)-Introduce ZIM support in Mediaswiki Book creator/OCG

Mediawiki est le motor wiki derrière Wikipedia, tous les projets Wikimedia et des centaines d'autres sites Web. C'est un logiciel libre de pointe fournissant des sites Web hautement fonctionnels que n'importe qui peut éditer. Le contenu hébergé Mediawiki peut être rendu disponible pour une utilisation hors-ligne avec l'extension de collection (développé en PHP). L'extension de collection permet de créer rapidement une collection/sélection d'articles, nommés livres ; voir le fonctionnement sur Wikipedia en anglais

Testing platform

We need a solution to test automatically Kiwix. We have currently nothing... so we start from scratch.!

Wikipublish

Create a publication platform, a Web site online similar to itunes which would provide the list of available contents to download in ZIM, EPUB, .... also offer to see the book before downloading it.

• Wants to know more...
• Add support of EPUB in Kiwix

OSM

Make a proof of concept of a ZIM file providing a map using OSM data and a tool like openLayer.

Improve P2P support

• Fix Mirrorbrain to integrate torrent links in mirrorbrain
• Fix Mirrorbrain to support fallback torrent trackers in .torrent files
• Add a way to exchange library and content on a local network (for example, using "bonjour" & BitTorrent DHT)

Ambassador Program

Create an ambassador program. Ambassadors would be special people especially aware about Kiwix and able to help others:

• Spread contents
• Makes conferences
• Makes advertisement
• Local representative

To do that, we should develop a set of tools:

• Advertisement Package
• Ambassador program definition
• Map base on Ushahidi to locate them

Starter Kit (Assigned)

Perhaps a nice kit would help. You know, like for organizing Linux installation parties[1] or Mozilla's event kits[2] etc., that encourages people, and provides step-by-step guidance and advice, to go and install Kiwix with a relevant offline Wikipedia file in their local no-Internet (or restricted/expensive Internet) school, college, community center, etc.

Would anyone be interested in working on that? WMF can contribute funding for some materials -- a Kiwix quick-start guide or cheatsheet, stickers, T-shirts.

Video

It would be great to have a video (screencast) presenting the software with its most important feature.

Here is a proposition:

• Presentation slide of the video with slide and authors
• Presentation of the context (Online Wikipedia put offline of a DVD)
• Presentation of the principle of Kiwix and ZIM
• Starting Kiwix
• Open file
• Indexing file
• surfing
• searching
• special features: fullscreen, switch language, font bigger/smaller, random page, etc.
• Finish (present the ZIM availables and how to download them)
