Refine Kiwix UI
Improve the appearence. Appearance is important to gain confidence in the software and make the whole user experience better. I propose here to involve here someone with design skills and propose to implement his proposition after discussion in the app. Kelson 20:39, 22 August 2011 (CEST)

Propositions:
 * Better language switch menu organisation, they are now too much language in one list
 * Still continue to improve the tabs design

Automate zim file generation
