The wiki now supports '''[http://gears.google.com/ Google Gears]''', which allows you to view the wiki offline (and fast). Just install Google Gears and click the Go Offline link at the bottom of any page. Be prepared to wait up to an hour(!) as it downloads, it will notify you at the bottom (next to the Go offline link) when it's done. Once you've done that, use your browser's 'Work offline' option (file menu usually), or just disconnect your internet and browse the wiki as normal.
