We have a first cut at an offline archive of the ros.org wiki: http://www.ros.org/roswiki.tar.gz http://www.ros.org/doc.tar.gz The first tarball contains the wiki, rendered into HTML by MoinMoin's export tool. Unpack it, then open `roswiki/index.html` in a web browser. The second tarball contains the auto-generated documentation pages (we separated it because it's quite big). If you unpack that tarball inside the `roswiki` directory, then links to autogenerated docs (e.g., API documentation produced by Doxygen, message/service documentation) should work. There are still some rough edges (e.g., ending up in a directory where you have to manually click on `index.html`). Please have a look at it and provide feedback. Once we have an archiving step that we're happy with, we'll start producing a new archive regularly. brian.
