“The Indian Institute of Information Technology, Bangalore’s
Information for Development Centre and FreeOS.Com are looking for
champions who can take up the cause of localising Linux in Indian
languages. The goal of this Indianisation project is to ensure that
the benefits of Information Technology percolate down to the Indian
masses. We want to make technology accessible to the “other 90
percent” of India that does not speak English.”
“The task involves localising the user-interface and help text
of Linux and related applications and we expect this to take around
2 years in collaboration with several other volunteers, over the
Internet.”
“We are looking for project leaders (can be an individual or a
group) and volunteers for this project, the results of which will
be in the public domain and freely avaiable to everyone.”
