We are not actual Kiwix developers. We actually use kiwix as a tool to take Wikipedia to those places where internet access is not possible. People (students) in rural area haven't heard of Wikipedia. We want them to benefited by Wikipedia and we encourage them to take part in Wikipedia. We set up Wi-Fi hot spots, and those with mobile phone, tablet or latop can get connected. And access Wikipedia, wiktionary,wikiquotes, Tamil Wikipedia and so much.
