1. Building a Fast Offline Wikipedia

Building a (fast) Wikipedia offline reader In two days... (August 2007) Executive summary It's strong points: * Very fast searching * Keyword (actually, title words) based searching * Search produces multiple possible articles: you can choose amongst them * LaTEX based rendering for Mathematics (thanks to the guys at woc.fslab.de) * Harddisk space is minimal: the original .bz2 file (split in pieces) plus the index built through Xapian * Orders of magnitude faster to install (a matter of hours) compared to loading the "dump" into MySQL
