When we started IndiX project, Indic support was out of scope in XFree86
development team. And when Pango project started, we already did a
considerable amount of work. We also approached the members of Pango team
and showed them our willingness to help in the development. Unfortunately,
no one responded to my mail. Also I was so busy in my project that I
couldn't follow my that mail any further.

Since we have basic design conflict with XFree86 core development team
members, we couldn't push our work in that branch.

We have already joined the kde-i18n list. We also like to help
trolltech.com in providing indic support in Qt. Please refer to the mail
that I sent recently to this list:
   http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-i18n-doc&m=102576553904044&w=2

Right now we are studying architecture of KDE and Qt.

Thanks for your suggestions.
