Re: [Indic-computing-users] Size of Indian Language Computing Market?

[<ve...@vs...>]

Dear Anjaneyulu,

Frankly, I don't think it is premature at all. How can anyone taking a business decision (as opposed to a tech decision) invest in a market he/she knows nothing about? People like us may do this work out of love but for commercial organizations, sizing the market is critical in terms of deciding how much time and effort to invest. 

Some people argue that since it is too early, there is no point in trying to size the market. That's akin to flying blind! It is better to create a working hypothesis and keep correcting it as more facts come to light. I'll check with MAIT (www.mait.com) for more information.

During the Indic workshop someone had mentioned that there was
a study carried out by a Mumbai agency on the size of the Indian
Language Computing market. Though it was discussed and felt that 
it was 'premature' to talk about market size I would like to try
to get hold of any inputs from that study.

Can someone point me to the study or who has done it.

Thanks.
