Comment 1 Marcin Cieślak 2014-04-26 13:22:46 UTC
This was added in r67606 (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/67606) as an optional support for Okawix formats (it lives now as 93e009a802151bfee1ecafde12d79c6aa2c0a37e)

If Okawix rendering is dead, we should probably remove the support altogether.
Comment 2 Marcin Cieślak 2014-04-26 13:29:34 UTC
Seems like they wanted to move to ZIM (http://blog.wikiwix.com/en/2011/04/03/okawix-for-pc-soon-to-work-with-zim/comment-page-1/#comment-8042).

Anyway, torrent server is not reachable (http://91.121.92.45/zeno/pl.wikipedia.okawix.torrent), so may be the project is dead?
Comment 3 Kelson [Emmanuel Engelhart] 2014-04-26 16:47:04 UTC
This should not be implemented or removed:
* Okawix does not use any clearly open defined format
* Okawix solution is based on an old version of the ZIM format packed in some kind of tar file.
* Okawix is neither maintained nor further developed
* Okawix is the only reader for its own format
* Okawix format does not provide any advantages in comparison to the existing ZIM format.
