The paper is now available at the= following url:</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> =A0</FONT></div> <div> <A= HREF=3D"http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/multi_sys/unicode/intro.html"><F= ONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3>= http://acharya.iitm.ac.in/multi_sys/unicode/intro.html</FONT></A= ></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> Fred just asked for and= received a sneak preview of the paper a couple of days= ago:-)</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> =A0</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> It is an exceptionally= painstaking work that condenses both Prof. Krishnan's thoughts= on Unicode for Indian language computing and the SDL approach to= multilingual computing for our country. </FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> =A0</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> Venky, you mentioned in the= mail about Mozilla localization that ISO is waiting for Indian= language developers to settle to some encoding. Hopefully, Prof.= Krishnan's labour of love for the past twenty years for Indian= language computing and his rich experience will</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> have a place in that= discussion. In fact, Netscape approached him=A0 some years ago for= localising its browser.</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> =A0</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> As always, you can send your= comments and suggestions on the paper to= rk...@ac...</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> =A0</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> Regards,</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> Karthik Venkatesh</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> =A0</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> P.S: By the way, it was= magnanimous of Prof. Krishnan to acknowledge my help in the= intro page. Rest assured that my effort was mere window dressing= and I didn't write a single word:-)</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> =A0</FONT></div> <div><FONT FACE=3D"Verdana" SIZE=3D3> Karthik</FONT></div> </body></html> |
