== Mirror of the VBS2 wiki ==
I maintain a number of VBS2 machines that are, by policy, forbidden to ever touch the internet.  I would like to keep a local copy of the wiki for reference.  Is it possible to obtain an offline snapshot of the bistudio wiki? 
Wikipedia provides this at http://download.wikimedia.org/

What is a CrashDome? 
Is this wiki export script something 'out on the web' or buried someplace in the BI wiki/forum/blog pages?  What I'm looking for is an SQL dump of the pages so I can build a functional, searchable mirror of the wiki off-line.

I am not allowed to install any programs on my internet-connected computer.  I can work with the bureaucracy to have the script installed, but I imagine that anything named "Crashdome" will be frowned upon.  I am looking for something I can fetch, burn to DVD, and carry to the off-the-net computers.  If there is an SQL dump like from wikimedia/wikipedia, I can work with that.  If there is a .zip file with the results of the crashdome script, I can work with that.  (I could go home and install crashdome,  but exchange of data from home computers to work computers is also frowned upon by the bureaucracy.)  To make things more fun, the "VBS2" computers are not even in the same room as an internet connected computer.
I propose that a downloadable snapshot of this wiki be available from this wiki...
:This would be nice if it could be automated. I noticed in the link you mentioned, their last update was over a year ago... so WikiMedia's system isn't exactly up to date. You can download your own copy of this wiki, as an html file, using HTTrack (http://www.httrack.com/). The search function of the wiki won't work, but the links will. --[[User:General Barron|General Barron]] 20:41, 18 August 2009 (CEST)
== Buy Arma 2 link ==
The wiki still shows a link for buying ArmA 1.08.  Why no Arma 2 purchase link? =) --[[User:Jtgibson|Jtgibson]] 02:27, 18 August 2009 (CEST)
