[smc-discuss] IDN Malayalam

Dear Anivar,

Thanks. You may write to DIT. I have already marked the copy of this communication, as well as earlier communication to DIT.

We are planning second round of stakeholder consultation & will inform you shortly with concurrence from DIT.

DIT will not implement the policy without this.

  Dear Santhos, 

  Since Mahesh Kulkarni is not shared a meeting plan so far, even after 5-6 months from our critique, I suggest to write to DIT as well about our critique to IDN
  If they are implementing current document by CDAC for Mlayalam IDN,  It cannot be corrected later. 

  Dear Mahesh

  Please share us a meeting plan as early as possible , because current ploicy document is full of conceptual & theoretical mistakes

    Dear Santhosh,

    We will definately have the stake holder consultations once again, wherein each and every voice will be heard.
    Finally language(s) is/are meant for community & hence we expect the policy to be vetted by the community.

        YES. We appreciate. We are awaiting for suitable dates from the Ministry
        as well. Hope to have the same by this month end or March 1st week

      Quoting N Ravi Shankar, joint secretary at the Department of
      Information Technology,  as read at
      http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report_urls-in-7-regional-languages-soon_1528401

      [...]
      The government, he said, has applied for similar allotments in other
      regional languages such as Malayalam, Marathi and Kannada. “We are
      likely to get them in the coming months.”
      [...]

      Just wanted to know whether CDAC  has any plan to correct the
      completely wrong Malayalam IDN guidelines. Sorry to see that even
      after 3 months, we don't get a solution for the issues we raised.

      Thanks

            Dear Santhosh,

            As discussed earlier, a meeting of all stakeholders will be scheduled in
            the second/third week of January 2011. This is for your information.

          Hi,
          Any update on this? I did not hear anything on this from you on January.
          The issues are serious and cannot be implemented until we resolve it.
          Expecting a meeting as soon as possible.
