Re: Hindi and Software

i ditto Ajay's views here.
Porting some applications is a decent enough idea. but not a complete
system.
i don't think the companies such as epatra and others are doing too well.
typing in hindi would be a tough one.
most people can read hindi and might like to see output in hindi, but typing
still might be a tough one. tech magazines in hindi (I think Chip has one
such mag) aren't doing too good IMHO.

A mapping such as the one that www.epatra.com uses is decent enough. and yes
as Ajay said, the english penetration is really appreciable in india. only
the govt needs to support the effort.
