[Indic-computing-users] Linux bangalore 2002

[Guntupalli K. <kar...@fr...>]

Hi,
  Preperations for Linux Bangalore 2002 have begun. Website with
speaker/volunteer/exibitor registration is up. 
See http://linux-bangalore.org/2002 for more. Last events report is at
httpL//linux-bangalore.org/2001/report.php

This year would be of showcasing the Indic support. To date still few
people are aware of Indic support, once they get to see thing live &
get a hands on experience. This time a bigger crowd & wider media
presence can be expected . So for us this would be a good opportunity
to make our presence felt. 

I planning for two talks centering  around  i18n  & l10n concepts .
i18n one would be for developer oriented under Development track. Will
cover what developers need to know to have their software i18nized,
esp in indian context . 
Other one on l10n, in Users track , would be about current scenario of
localisation in Linux/gnome/kde/. how to work in IL, how to contribute
etc. If there are other localisation talks, then will have this one
cut.

Could we have one on Indic-computing activities also  
 Or maybe one on making the Akruti fonts Unicode / Opentype fonts 
 Or a talk on using pfaedit , fonttools etc to make opentype fonts 

btw is anyone else on the list giving a talk ? Knowing in advance will
help aviod duplication.

Regards,
Karunakar
