Im sure most of you guys are already on the indlinux list, but if not see
below about Malayam Gnome port from our friends in Kerala.

Since the indlinux guys (Karunakar, Prakash, Venky) are all indic-computing
participants also, maybe some ML streamlining should occur and the indlinux
mailing list only be used for the discussing the development
of the indlinux distro?  Just an idea, but it would be nice to streamline
our conversations away from many separate mailing lists and back channel
conversations on to some place...

Subject: [Indlinux-group] Malayalam translation of the GPL

Dear everybody,

I am working on translating the GPL into Malayalam.  At present, the
preamble
is completed, and I have put it up on my site,
http://in.geocities.com/paivakil/freecommunity/

The files are pre-release versions, and comments on the terminology used is
invited.  For ease of feed back, I have numbered the paragraphs in square
brackets [], and please quote the paragraph number in your responses.

It is available in four formats,
1. Varamozhi text:-
http://in.geocities.com/paivakil/freecommunity/gpl-ml-preamble-prerelease.txt

2. jpeg file:- (huge - 183 kb)
http://in.geocities.com/paivakil/freecommunity/gpl-ml-preamble-prerelease.jpg

3. iscii encoded html, cur'tsy iLeap - so it uses ML-TTkarthika font.
http://in.geocities.com/paivakil/freecommunity/gpl-ml-preamble-prerelease.htm

4. Unicode html, converted from varamozhi.
http://in.geocities.com/paivakil/freecommunity/gpl-ml-preamble-prerelease-unicode.htm

The unicode file uses styles in the headers and uses malayalam.ttf (the
font) by
default.  If you do not have malayalam.ttf, open this file (the html file)
in
any text editor, and add name of font you have on line 19.

5. Post script format, (hhhhhuuuuuuggggggeeeeee - 251 kb)
http://in.geocities.com/paivakil/freecommunity/gpl-ml-preamble-prerelease.ps

I expect that there might some some opinions on the choice of words used,
(like
'saujanyam' and 'swatantra').

Expecting your feed back (boquets and brickbats),
Mahesh T Pai.
