Apologies for not being able to take up Gujarati as one of the focus language areas. This is mainly because we do not have a network of institutions and groups. Of course the current A2K team also lacks familiarity with Gujarati. But we also do not have current capacities in Marathi and Bangla.
Based on the discussions with two Gujarati Wikimedians we have decided to support Gujarati Wikisource project. We welcome your feedback and suggestions to further improve it.
