Hi Michael.
I am representing an organization named Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) based in Pune, India. You might want to take a look at http://www.cdac.in/gist for more information about my organization. C-DAC is an autonomous scientific society under Ministry of Communications and Information Technology, Govt. of India. As i had mentioned in my earlier email, there is a team up here which has been dealing with translation and localization of various free and open source softwares for quite some time now. C-DAC felt that it is better to join the main community by contributing this work of translation which C-DAC team has already done. Hence this request of additing so many Indian languages on to translation platform (pootle). I am ready to coordinate for requested languages untill someone else joins any of these language teams. The moment some one joins these languages, and is confident of taking up these tasks, i will make myself free from those languages and contribute to other aspects of the project. :) I dont speak all of these languages. I know only from Marathi and Hindi. Regards, Chandrakant Dhutadmal, C-DAC, Pune, India.

Ah I wasn't aware of that.

If I wanted to become a pootle admin for LO, who should I talk to do you reckon? > > In this case, Andras already handled the request as far as I can tell: For Santali, yes. I believe Chandra is part of a bigger group and asked for access to quite a lot of dormant locales. I'm pasting my original response to him so you can see which languages he was asking about. So I believe Urdu and Santali aside, Chandra's questions haven't been fully answered. Chandra, it might help if you tell us a little about your team? Is it a team or organization you represent? I'm guessing you don't speak all these yourself? >> 1. Dogri > Locale looks very dormant, no locale leader listed, you should be able > to take on this locale >> 2.
