Yes, many of the pieces are directly downloadable here, if you do not wish
to order a disk:
http://download.kiwix.org/portable/

Tim Moody, Emmanuel Engelhart and a growing team of very experienced
content-packagers (in the US especially, so far) will also be evolving much
higher quality youth-oriented subsets of Wikipedia this year.  Directly
education-relevant far more than in the past: not just for
schools/libraries but also for after-school programs and die-hard
passionate parents/families/kids/teachers etc.

Watch for releases in+around June, of these colorful new 10GB-and-larger
Wikipedia treasure troves -- starting in English, French and Spanish -- and
containing many more high-resolution maps, historical photographs and
increasingly videos than in the past.  Won't happen overnight but it's
coming =)

Thanks,
