Let me clarify this. C-DAC as an organization has undertaken localization of various softwares with the help of freelancers/ in-house translators. This has been done in a non-community driven way. I should also let you all know that getting people on-board for languages like Bodo, Sindhi, Santali, Dogri, etc is very very difficult as its difficult to find many of them in India/ World. </span></div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1425659505450_13602"><span><br></span></div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1425659505450_13602">As Sankarshan assumes and by now he knows that, I am more into providing help and mentorship to people who are the actual translators. I made this thing clear to other project lists also. </div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1425659505450_13602"><br></div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1425659505450_13602">I personally feel, upstream contributions to the project are more important than the mechanism of generating the contributed resources.
