Dear Friends EPUB is a very important open standard developed by the International Digital Publishers Froum and is being widely accepted in the digital publishing industry.
The standard revision process is going on and a subgroup is working on the Enhanced Global Language Support. The concern is that there is no Indian Language representation and contribution at this stage. Needless to say that this is of huge importance as digital books in coming years are going to adhere to this standard and we do not want to have Indian languages struggling to the rendered correctly on devices supporting EPUB. The contributions regarding Indian Languges concerns are invited. The User requirements gathering process deadline is fast approaching. We were not there at the F2F meeting for this purpose. Thus we need to take some urgent steps to identify some Indian Language digital content experts who could contribute at this stage.
