Linux to be Available in 13 Indian Languages

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the tux-meets-taj-mahal dept.

bablooo writes "Red Hat announced today that its flagship Red Hat Enterprise Server would be available in 13 Indian Languages. In February 2005, the first 5 Indian language versions will be available - Bangla, Hindi, Punjabi, Gujrati and Tamil. By Feb 2006, it will be available in Marathi, Telegu, Kannada, Oriya, Malayalam and Urdu among others. You may want to look at a bit more details of what kind of work is going on in translating Linux to Bangla . This should enable more proliferation of Linux into local Govt. usage in India, which is a good thing"

    They definitely should translate Gentoo Linux into Telugu.

    After all, Gentoo is an alternative (deprecated) name for the Telugu. language.
