open encyclopedia?

[brockmasterflex]

hey guys,

some of my university courses require some research (not sh-it!!!). I was wonder if such a program like M$ Encarta is available for Linux?

Just curious....

http://www.nupedia.com/ and http://www.wikipedia.org/ are the main ones. There are also projects like Everything2 and Hitchhikers' Guide but they are not really open and not really encylopedias.
