[Indic-computing-devel] The project faq - a suggestion.

[<al...@ya...>]

Dear indices,
With reference to http://indic-computing.sourceforge.net/faq/miscellaneous.html
on the website - the url
http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/Globalization/ has a better
alternative, namely, http://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Globalization/ . 

http://dmoz.org is the website of Netscape's open directory project(ODP) that
provides the data free of charge to search engines(to anybody who'd like to
download it in fact) also known as "downstream users" . The downstream users
are free to update any time they want, but the information in http://dmoz.org
would normally be more uptodate than that contained on the google pages, which
are created using the (older) dumps provided by odp.

Therefore I think it would be a good idea to provide the link to
http://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Globalization/ rather than to
http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Software/Globalization/ .

Also noteworthy are http://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Fonts/Indic/ and
http://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Globalization/Character_Encoding/Indic/ .

Regards 
Alok
