NO. suddenly the project is slightly slowed down since one of the core member
left our centre.

thanks.

PS:  You can put my linux tutorial in tamil (both TSCII and TAB format) right
away. (currently only 3 exercises are there) It is a plain text file. You need
to have a TSCII or TAB font file to read it, which are the major encoding
scheme practised today in TAMIL.  one can download TSCII font from
http://www.tamil.net/tscii/   and TAB font from http://www.tamilnet99.org.

Hot News:  Currently I am in the process of translating DOS-Win-to-Linux HOWTO
into tamil.  I downloaded the sgml source and 1/3 of the work is completed so
far.  The experience is like writing a book in tamil.  for some of the english
word I am taking help from Project Madurai (pmadurai@xxxxxxxxxxx) list to
translate into tamil.  (e.g. what is the tamil equiv. for the word
"Disclaimer" - i got a dozen of equiv. from that list).  When the rest of the
2/3 work completed, AFAIK that is the first HOWTO which got translated in
Indian Language.
