--- Comment #27 from Viswaprabha <[email protected]> ---

Dear Erik & others,

The following is a possible configuration set, that I thought, should settle
the issues for the users in Malayalam (ml) community for the time being. In
order to avoid variance in opinions or interpretations, I had collected a rough
and  quick-opinion harvest at the community page. Many have expressed consensus
to these suggestions:
(Please refer to:
http://ml.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Panchayath_Technical#Explanatory_English_translation)

According to this,
# ULS may be incorporated in all ml.*.org projects in all scenarios and states.
# All those users who have logged in, will be provided with options to choose
which IME (including system default i.e. native keyboard) should be set
permanently within their own preferences settings.
#All users who have not logged in and those who have logged in but not
explicitly opted for an alternate IME method in their user preferences, will
have the IME option set to native keyboard (i.e. system IME) as default. The
same will be ensured in all *.wiki.* projects as far as Malayalam interface is
concerned.
# As Wikimedia developers have software compliance issues in continuing support
to Narayam IME, WMF shall not provide Narayam as part of Wikimedia pages
(either as built-in or as an extension). However, users or community may
develop/adapt/implement their own IME methods by way of their user scripts or
tools external to Wikipedia interface, under their own responsibility.
# The system fonts will be the default available font initially for Malayalam
language in all *.wik*.org projects (as one opens a Wikimedia project page).
However, besides this, there shall be a setting to choose a preferred Web font
as permanent within the user preferences settings. The list of such webfonts
will be maintained, expanded and updated as more of them get released/improved.
# In all ml.wik*.org projects, logged-in users will be able to set their chosen
webfonts for each additional languages independently.
# There are pending technical issues faced by various users in various
scenarios. The community will try to identify each one distinctly and report
them as distinct bugs to developers on an ongoing basis. The community and
developers will collectively and creatively try to get rid of all such
technical issues.
# Any discussions regarding bugs will be focused on the very bug itself. The
developers and community members will always restrain themselves to be within a
symbiotic discussion environment with the sole goal of fixing the bug and
carrying the vision and mission of Wikimedia ventures forward.
