[edit] CD Releases
I converted the wikipedia portion of BozMo's CD to a Plucker database so I could carry it on an SD card on my Palm. I have put it up for download at ftp://ftp.wizzy.com/pub/wizzy/palm/Wikipedia.pdb - it weighs in at 44 Megabytes, with pictures downsized to 150x150, 8 bit color. It is also available via Torrent [2].
For the upcoming CD releases, I am putting together some tools at User:Wikiwizzy/CDTools. See also at m:Static version tools. Other discussion is at Wikipedia:Version 0.5/To do, User talk:Walkerma, Wikipedia talk:Version 0.5, m:Wikipedia on CD/DVD, m:Talk:Special projects subcommittees/Static content. en: pictures can be downloaded from http://download.wikimedia.org/images/wikipedia/en/.
