Hi,
Kiwix nor Moulinwiki do not start an http server.
We work on different thinks, just ask if you have questions on a precise
topic.
We want also to adopt the Directmedia Zeno storage format for the next
version (Thx Tommi ;)
I have heard that maybe people need softwares to easily mirror contents
from a source Mediawiki to a target Mediawiki. I have released today a
fully threaded rewrited version of our mirror script here:
http://kiwix.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/kiwix/mirroring_tools/
Be careful, this piece of software is provided without any guaranty.
Regards
Emmanuel
