yes, but are there free offline package of Wikipedia available? Last time I talked to danimo, that was the issue. Is it solved?

If Wikipedia is available on CD/DVD (which it is) then I assume that offline packages should be possible (if only as cache).

Not yet -- at least not in a suitable form for distributors and KDE.
Ideally we would have a tool which would make it possible for packagers to specify the desired category(/ies), certain core-keywords, the language(s) and the limit for the amount of data. The tool would then create an offline package which would be tailored down to the packagers / distributors needs.

Of course creating such a tool is certainly much less work for KDE than to recreate glossars for each educational application and translate and update them on our own ...
