"Almost all the widely available software today is written and documented in English, and uses English as the medium to interact with users. This has the advantage of a common language of communication between developers, maintainers and users from different countries. In a country like Bangladesh, an overwhelming majority of the population does not know English. Given this fact, availability of affordable native language software will play a crucial role in the process of taking the benefits of the "information revolution" to the marginalized sections of society and to achieve appropriate social use of information technology. -- http://www.banglalinux.org which promises 'Bangla Innovation through Open Source' -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Frederick Noronha (FN) | http://www.fredericknoronha.net Freelance Journalist | http://www.bytesforall.org http://goalinks.pitas.com | http://joingoanet.shorturl.com http://linuxinindia.pitas.com | http://www.livejournal.com/users/goalinks ------------------------------------------------------------------------- T: 0091.832.2409490 or 2409783 M: 0 9822 122436 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
