the fun is that BOSSLinux chose to ignore existing language communities
in India and carve out a path for themselves. now Raman makes a fairly
eloquent case for why it did so. and, i don't want to argue for or
against that.

however, in my book, given that this isn't the first time they have done
so, the mere thought of rejoicing at the 'inclusion' of 22 Indic
languages is a bit more worse than shout of joy at getting a hand on
Windows Vista.

it sounds harsh, but the cathedral mode of software development is not
the underlying ethos of open source software development model.
