Knowing English and coding using English keyworks are different. I was able to code in 1st year of BE when I was not knowing english well. (even now also :P) Today the number of indian who touch the keyboard in some sense have knowledge of basic English, and that much english well sufficient for coding. I wrote in my past mail -- "If something needed for indian , then it is the content and tutorial" Better to Go for making "Hinglish Contents" rather then "Hindi Software or Hindi Software Language Port" One Hindi-wala can contribute in Hindi software, and one "Telgu wala" can contribute in Telgu software..

Anyone can write code whithout knowing much English, _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
