Ankur - Supporting Bangla (Bengali) on GNU/Linux
Friday, 11 November 2005

Ankur is working toward supporting Bangla(Bengali) language on GNU/Linux operating system. However, most of our projects are focused on XFree86.org's XServer. Some of our projects are in fact platform independent and adds supports of other operating systems.

These are our primary goals:

:: Translate popular and major XServer applications ::

We are working on providing Bangla support for some major XServer applications such as office suites, database, development tools and desktop environments like GNOME, KDE. Our intention is to help develop and maintain open source/free software targeted towards the Bangla speaking users.

:: Create awareness among Bangla speaking computer users ::

We are trying to create several articles and presentation materials to educate people about GNU/Linux and FLOSS movement.

Ankur is often involved in development based on cutting edge technology.
