Hi Sumon,
If Ekushey cannot deliver a layout editor for Linux then it's a shame 
for the brand. :)

Ekushey never made solutions, it uses the current solutions for ease 
Bangla computing and then introduce them to the end users. I 
successfully made UniJoy layout for Linux and was using that in my 
Ubuntu box. Still thinking how to release it in public, because it's 
quite tough to install that. But as the layout went to m17n CVS, 
upcoming release of Linux will have it and users may have to install a 
few things from add/remove applications (or whatever).

One more good news. We successfully included (beautiful) Bangla letters 
in Freefonts (FreeSans and FreeSerif) and that is also went to CVS. So 
upcoming Linux will have Bangla fonts by default, though you don't have 
any Bangla fonts installed. :)

The fight is over but the war is not. We are working for our language 
and *will* continue.

Sajed Bhai,
Don't you think it *is* the time for change? All Bangladeshi Bangla web 
portals should change their typical system and switch to latest Unicode?
