Linux Localization And E-governance

Posted by Hemos on from the using-it-in-the-best-way-possible dept.

BhondaiPola writes "The Telegraph has an interesting article about the works of a Bengali Linux localization group. The article speaks of the potential areas in which localization can be implemented, especially, E-governance. Most of the stuff is known to us, but the article should serve as a nice introductory article for anyone new to the issue. And I liked the screenshots of the localized GNOME in the website of the group."

    why choose GNOME to do this? Is there no Bengali support in KDE? I'm just wondering if there was a prevailing reason. On a side note, I like the Totem screen shot in the pictures. Why isn't there a KDE media player based on Xine, dammit?!?
