Creating exploded version of ZIM is unlikely.
Nobody is maintaining the tooling anymore, nor it is a wise use of time/resources.

Better direction is to put ZIM archives on IPFS as-is, without unpacking them, and have a web based reader that is capable fo fetching necessary byte ranges p2p/http from IPFS>

@papiche please see #140 for an approach which will enable using ZIMs as-is, including the French one. If you are interested in contributing, invest time there.

@alzinging

it's not okay that the sum of the world's encyclopedic knowledge is stored on Jimmy wales servers alone.

I agree.

I'm looking to create a full-time active fork of Wikipedia I want to store it on IPFS as you have except keep it up to date and create a more robust interface in angular

OK. Let's go...

put ZIM archives on IPFS as-is

I am using IPFS for few years now, I can tell you, big files over IPFS is not the good way to do if you like to make regular snapshots. When put into IPFS, it is better to redefine protocol inside data itself. And get an IPNS "allocation table" for it. I am working with spherical geo keys to run UPlanet, it uses TiddlyWiki to publish & collect articles based on sharing number and cross-signed trust level. It can host and build "Wikipedia" from the ground to the surface.

Coud we extract the contributor list and their contributions from ZIM or else?
