I will be unable to join in either form due to a training in office.

Some other areas to be looked into apart from localization
- Dictionary & spell-checker for Libreoffice/OOo . Aspell & hunspell
have been stagnant for quite long.

- Cliparts - some Indian specific artwork/graphics/icons.

- Templates or Style guide on Indic text layout/styling in documents,
presentations, graphics. This could also give tips on how to do DTP
like work in Libreoffice

- Font packs - say a meta package could be defined -
libreoffice-hindi-fonts , which would go ahead and pull all available
fonts. So user gets all available and multiple fonts for single
language. maybe this happens with task-hindi / task-hindi-desktop
for core indic fonts. But would be nice to allow user to
download/pull other fonts which are available (say google fonts or
other sources).
