While Wikimedia Deutschland was not willing to publish press releases from the openZIM team (despite promises by its president) we were still able to reach several news sites and blogs. | |||
The most notable press coverage was the article on Heise online about the Wikipedia DVD and openZIM at LinuxTag, but several other blog posts from interested parties kept openZIM present in the web. | |||
Started from scratch the project website has now about 3'000 unique visitors per month, generating nearly 5'000 visits, 28'000 page views and more that 50'000 hits per month, in average 0,5 Terabyte of traffic each month. | |||

This money was spent to run a server for the project providing a technical infrastructure (CPU time for ZIM file creation, download area, version management software, bugtracker, wiki, website, virtual machines with other operating systems etc.) and for Developer Meetings. | ||
As openZIM is exclusively run by volunteers openZIM tried to cover most costs for meetings including accommodation and catering for all participants. Travel costs, though, have been paid by the participants. | As openZIM is exclusively run by volunteers openZIM tried to cover most costs for meetings including accommodation and catering for all participants.
