GFDL-compliance

::: I wrote a script to do exactly this task: read the wikipedia database and build a static version in html, suitable to be put on CD or DVD. The current english Wikipedia is just about filling a 700MB CD, without including images. At present, stubs and very small articles take a huge amount of the used space, so if the biggest 75,000 articles are selected there would be enough space to include a good fraction of the images (the media directory on wikipedia is about 400 MB). Articles can be compressed, but then you need a reader program and it would much less portable (need different executables for win, mac, linux, etc.) [[User:At18|At18]] 16:39, 23 Aug 2003 (UTC)
 
* 1.0 should be completely compliant with the GFDL. Currently Wikipedia has some rough edges (eg printable version) where this probably isn't the case.
