	I'd be interested in what made you choose the HTML dump over parsing the database dump; the original data should be more dense once parsed and easier to parse (no need to translate category names, for example). --[[User:Chrysn\|chrysn]] 21:21, 29 October 2007 (CET)		I'd be interested in what made you choose the HTML dump over parsing the database dump; the original data should be more dense once parsed and easier to parse (no need to translate category names, for example). --[[User:Chrysn\|chrysn]] 21:21, 29 October 2007 (CET)

−	~~Is Mokopedia a good name for this project? I also considered:~~
−	*WikiMobile
−	*MobileWiki
−	*MokoWiki
−	*WikipediaOffline
−	The "problem" is, that this application will run on every Linux box and not only on the OpenMoko platform but I ideally want to credit both: wikipedia and openmoko without making the impression that this is the OpenMoko Wiki or a wikipedia Editing Tool but simply an offline viewer for mobile linux devices.

−	~~"Mokopedia" was not the initial name but I thought that this word just sounds nice! ;)~~

−	Please also post additional naming ideas and discuss mine - I'm currently making good progress in programming the stuff. Just got stuck with the gtkhtml implementation... :-/ --[[User:JoSch\|JoSch]] 20:20, 16 July 2007 (CEST)
