Dear Sir/Madam,

The native language effort of IndLinux Team, TeNeT Group at the Indian
Institute of Technology, Madras focusses on providing both the console
and X-Windows based local language interface for the Linux operating
system. 

In either case, the primary goal is to enable applications to inherit
the interface with no or minimal modification. Further, an application
developed in the console-based environment must work without requiring
any modification in the X environment.

In addition, once support has been developed for a particular
language, the effort to enable any other Indian language should
require only changes to the configuration.  

We have recently released an X-Interface, where we have modified the
X-library to support Indian Languages. Since we have modified in the
library level, the applications like KDE, K-Office, Netscape, etc. and
even your own application, that runs on top of it inherits this
property.

Indlinux Team.
