Since I didn't see the mail from Koustava on the list I'm following up on the short discussion that we had on #fedora-india
The project that is referenced in the description ie. xponjika does a decent job of displaying the Bongabdo. However, making it work on latest distributions is a somewhat arcane tasks. Additionally it is always better to perhaps create a panel applet or, application that displays it using some of the more recent toolkits. The logic of calculation is provided within the source code for xponjika. The need is to select a toolkit to create the application. Such a selection would necessarily be constrained by what the applicant already knows and, of course, the time-to-complete. At the end of the project I'd like to see an application/applet that is packaged in a format which allows it to be installed on a Fedora release and, the payload provided by means of a repository file. The wikipedia page at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengali_Calendar> provides some more details about the calendar and number of days etc. -- sankarshan mukhopadhyay <http://sankarshan.randomink.org/blog/> _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.dgplug.org http://lists.dgplug.org/listinfo.cgi/users-dgplug.org
