For users without an internet connection we are thinking about
converting a
rather large site to a DVD. As dynamic solutions with databases seem
hard
(see another thread) we are also considering a static html version. The
site is clearly convertible to a static version, I can make sure that
all
search functions are turned off.
Can the conversion itself optimized with Rails? Do you know solutions to
make a site static e.g. with different user agents? Or by treating the
requests as some different output format? (I’m thinking in the direction
of
the current HTML/XML output constructions…)

If you can set it up so the site displays all the pages you want to put
in the static version as a user clicks through it, you could use HTTrack
