[FN <fr...@by...>]

From the LINUX-INDIA-HELP list...

going on and it may be a good idea to collaborate in what is going on
(if you find it good from your point of view) as that can speed-up the
progress towards a final usable product.
A Hindi distro could be the beginning of other products coming into
indian languages.
