As I read on openzim's mailing list, the
project has matured quite a bit lately
and it would sure be worth while, making
it available for the openmoko platform
again.

Developers have done optimization for
small memory devices and it's likely
to become part of the qi-hardware
software stack for ben nanonote soon.
Some work is going on to provide a
gtkmm based viewer app [1].

Also the file format has been improved
to store any kinds of web content.
Archives for zimreader and kiwix seem to
be compatibility now, so a greater range
of contents may be available soon.

I don't have much time to contribute at
the moment :-(, but would also like to
see zimreader become part of SHR
distribution.

Cheers,
Marc
