That is yet another project.
However, Ankur Bangla Live! features a custom built MainModule (which is
the system into which you chroot once boot is complete), while, the
Milan simply puts some extra things (such as fonts, etc into the stock
Morphix HeavyGUI mainmodule - one of the disadvantages (IMHO) of which
is that there are lots of untranslated English apps out there in Milan -
which, IMO looks ugly).

Also, Ankur Bangla Live! has a number of Bangla related patches which
have not gone into the main source tree yet. Moreover, the web browser
in Ankur Bangla Live! is capable of handling UTF-8 encoded Bangla
webpages properly (it even features a static dump of
http://franz.stat.wisc.edu/~deepayan/Bengali/WebPage/Archive/archive.bn.html.) 

There are also a few fancy patches (improved file selector with metadata
viewing (like size, date and file type), file icons, navigation buttons
(back, home, etc.), bookmarks, editable location field, and more, menu
shadows, improved copy paste support (copied data does not go away when
app window is closed), some patches from Ximian Desktop2, etc).

Hopefully that clears the confusion.
