I think it's a great idea. PediaPress is great but (like Wikipedia itself) a little utilitarian. I have thought it would be a great revenue source for the WMF.

I think it's a great idea. PediaPress is great but (like Wikipedia itself) a little utilitarian.
I have thought it would be a great revenue source for the WMF. Make little books based on certain articles like the List of Common Misconceptions. Sell them as impulse purchases near checkout counters in bookstores. Step 3, profit.
The fundraising team at the WMF isn't really into it, they don't want the hassle of making & distributing physical objects that may not even sell. But it would be a cool project for the right team -- maybe if you want to build your resume as a book designer.
