Subject: Indian/South Asian contribution to GNU/Linux...
Hi all! My search for the Indian / South Asian contribution to GNU/Linux has
been progressing nicely. Thanks to all of you!
This seems to be an exciting subject. Since so many of you on this list have
shared information so generously with me, I would like to pass it back to
all on this list.
Below is a very preliminary summary of some initial findings. If I have left
out anyone you know, please do inform me. It would be great if we could
conduct this in an 'open/free research' kind of format.
The aim is not only to document the Indian and South Asian contribution to
GNU/Linux, but also to map what is possible, what can be done, and hopefully
inspire other talented programmers to go the free software/open source way.
This work is supported by Sarai <www.sarai.net> of New Delhi.
Use this information freely; only credit those who offered the initial
inputs.
Your feedback / brickbats are awaited. FN

Some of the work being done on the GNU/Linux front by Indians/South Asians
or people of South Asian origin worldwide includes:
* anjuta-0.1.6 stable has been released by Naba Kumar
http://news.gnome.org/997515902/index_html#997549720
* Free Software Foundation (India) work on programs to be undertaken
Localisation of Free Softwares Contact Arun <arun@freedevelopers.net>
Free Software in Education
Making a special CD of Debian GNU/Linux for College Education,
Making a similar CD (ofcourse with a different set of
applications) for School Going Kids.
Development of E-Learning tools.
Prof Nagarjuna is already working on this.
Free Software Education.
Training programs on Free Software tools.
* Hurd: Rajkumar S <raj2569@yahoo.com> writes that they are beginning to
work on a small lab for Hurd set up at the FD India office.
* Indianisation of Linux
vivek achary <v_i_v_1@yahoo.com> points to the website
http://www.tenet.res.in/Donlab/Indlinux/ and says "These guys
are_already_offering Indian language support from_the kernel_up, not as an
add-on that is stuck on top of the OS. IndLinux offers console fonts, text
(emacs, vim, pine,...) even gcc (u can write c programs in Indian languages)
More details below...
* M.P.Anand Babu <ab@gnu-india.org> is offering students interested ideas
for projects in Free Software. He writes: "I have lot of projects in (my)
TODO list. If you find anybody looking for projects, please forward them
to me, I will guide them and get it completed."
* GNU Messenger: by ab, Bala, Mridul Jain, Parag Mehta, Jeffrin GNU
Messenger for Yahoo services with a console based geeky readline and
guile interface. It started a fun project, but today its production
ready. Main motivation behind the project is to spread the power of GUILE
and READLINE librady.
* Cool Hurd Translators: Translator itself is cool concept in GNU/Hurd.
Here are some translators written by college students in this list:
* bzip2 translator: Ankur, Shikka and Venkat wrote this translator. This
when mapped on a file, you can do bzip compressed I/O.
* reverse translator: Written by Ramesh. When mapped to a file, what ever
you write to it, you can read the reverse of them.
* Tar file system translator: Again by Ramesh. Ramesh got the name
"Tarzen" because of this TAR project. You can mount a tar file as file
system using this translator. This project is still in initial
stages.
* Quote translator:
You can map this as ur .signature, /etc/issues, /etc/motd
and so on and get random quotes on the fly. Every time
when you read from this file, you get random quotes from
its database.
* Visual Emacs Calculator: by Pradhap This is written in Emacs Lisp. He
is currently busy with MP3 player for GNU Emacs.
* MiG -> CORBA: By Mridul Jain and ab MiG is obsolete interface and Mach
Specific. This project replaces MiG with CORBA standards to make GNU/Hurd
language independent and distributed. This is extremely big project.
* Linux Device Drivers Emulation in Hurd Space: By ab, Bala and Mridul
Emulating Linux Device Drivers in user space. GNU Mach is only a micro
kernel. Santhanu Goel emulated Linux SCSI and Network drivers inside GNU
Mach. But GNU Mach bloats up in size and loses the Mirco Kernel stature.
But by bringing the drivers to user space we have lots of advantages like
system stability, modularization ease of development/maintainability.
* Porting Netfilter to Hurd By ab Netfilter is NAT/Firewall framework in
Linux 2.4.x kernel. This should be ported to GNU Hurd/Pfinet. Hurd's
TCP/IP stack is derived from Linux kernel and because of that porting
Netfilter to Hurd shouldn't be difficult.
* GNU/Hurd Distribution: By gnu-india.org team. We have stopped this
project, because Philip Charles <philipc@copyleft.co.nz> is doing it
better. But still we continue the 3rd CD of this project. This CD is
named "4-hackers" contains valuable documentation for GNU OS Hacking.
* GNU Geek: by Visu and Nagappan GNU Geek is GNU [G]eek [E]nabled [E]ntry
[K]it Geek is a highly extensible framework for building console based
data entry tools. is powered by GUILE and READLINE. Info from M.P.Anand
Babu <ab@gnu-india.org> for all the above projects.
* Mukund Deshmukh of Beta Computronics <betacomp@nagpur.dot.net.in> writes
in to say: "Please look at my IVRS module at
http://search.cpan.org/search?mode=module&query=ivrs This is module is
very popular among the people who want to build up low cost IVRS using
external modem. I usually get 20-25 mails from all part of world per
month. A rough estimate is around 1000 IVRS installations are using this
module. I am based in Nagpur, India." Web site - http://betacomp.com
* Kinglsey informs us of some projects:
Anjuta from http://anjuta.sourceforge.net/
Simputer project http://simputer.org/
Raju Mathur's VishwaKarma (kandalaya.org)
Dr Tarique's wap library in PHP (".. it wouldn't fall into the purely
linux category but definitely indicates use of linux in india!)
* Check out the LIFE (Linux in Education) mailing list
LIFE@mm.hbcse.tifr.res.in
http://mm.hbcse.tifr.res.in/mailman/listinfo/life
* FSF-locale@gnu.org.in (localisation) mailing list!
To post to this list, send your email to: fsf-locale@gnu.org.in
General information about the mailing list is at:
http://gnu.org.in/mailman/listinfo/fsf-locale
* Abhas Abhinav <abhas@deeproot.co.in> writes in to say: "I've got some
great news for you! Kernel.org.in (remember?) is up and running now - and
so is our upgraded web site... We are currently mirroring kernel.org and
gnu.org ftp areas - but a lot more sites are in the pipeline - this
includes linux documentation project, ibiblio archives, samba and apache
projects, vim, rpmfind and more. The smaller ones might be possible pretty
early, but others will take time and investment. Please do visit
http://www.kernel.org.in for more details.
* IBM invited student to participate in the Linux Scholar Challenge contest,
where they can solve real-world issues and learn how to improve today's
open source environment. For this contest, students will select a Linux
project; describe their objectives, methodology, research and results in a
three-page paper; and submit it for evaluation. Students may register
online at http://www.ibm.com/university/linuxchallenge
The response from India was "very encouraging", according to
IBM ASEAN/South Asia Linux Manager Mukul Mathur <mmathru@in.ibm.com>
He said around 275 entries were received from India alone.
Contact: Kavitha Shankar, Community Relations Manager, Developer Relations
shkavith@in.ibm.com
* Pappu <pappu46@mailandnews.com> says: "There is a team of programmers lead
by M P Anand Babu <ab@gnu-india.org> working on many important parts of
the HURD, which is a replacement for the *nix kernel."
<http://www.gnu-india.org>
* Parag Mehta <pm@gnuos.org> announced recently: "i hv just released the
gnuyahoo-0.1 beta release on sf.net and hv announced it on freshmeat.net.
let me know if anything else needs to be done."
* Ramakrishnan M <rkrishnan@ti.com> suggestions that in the aftermath of
September 11, it is very likely that US exporting laws will become more
strict as regard to the cryptography publishing in the form of papers or
books or software. "I would like to request *everyone* who have access to
the internet to start downloading as much 'cryptography software source
code' as possible and also announce them on this list. We will have to
find a mirror in India to host this software...." To start with, please
have a look at http://www.cryptography.org ... and
http://munitions.vipul.net/
* Radhakrishnan CV <radi@freedevelopers.net> announces that the GNU/Linux
system can now support Malayalam. He writes: "Today a team of developers
in FreeDevelopers.net (India) have successfully implemented Malayalam
support in Pango and an input module for gtk which can support
Hellingman's Malayalam Transliteration Schema. Jeroen Hellingman is the
man who wrote a TeX package, input scheme and a free Malayalam font using
Metafont language. However, the metafont sources can only create rastor
fonts that are fit for usage in a TeX system, we need to write our own
fonts for using in GNU/Linux. The software used are gtk+-1.3.5,
pango-0.16. The sources will be released soon. A screen shot can be had
at: http://www.tugindia.org.in/malayalam/malayalam.jpg Its is just in
alpha stage and you can expect a few bugs. Comments are welcome.
Congratulations to the young developers of FD (India)."
* Hardware compatibility: Richard M Stallman <rms@gnu.org> recently wrote in
to say "My friend Ramakrishnan has volunteered to prepare a list of
devices normally available with assembled PC makers for which Free drivers
are available. Once prepared he is planning to send it to FSFI. I request
FSFI to host this list in their web site & keep it upto date so that we
don't fall into the trap of devices with non-free drivers. This is a very
useful project to work on."
* Naba Kumar <kh_naba@yahoo.com> explains his project thus: "Anjuta is a
versatile Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for C and C++ on
GNU/Linux. It has been written for GTK/GNOME, and features a number of
advanced programming facilities. These include project management,
application wizards, an on board interactive debugger, and a powerful
source editor with source browsing and syntax highlighting. Anjuta is an
effort to marry the flexibility and power of text-based command-line tools
with the ease-of-use of the GNOME graphical user interface. That is why it
has been made as user-friendly as possible. At present, Anjuta is only a
beta release and lots of work needs to be done to improve it. In the
future, Anjuta is going to be much more capable and stable! Extensive
debugging has not yet been performed, so at the moment it will,
undoubtedly, have lots of bugs."
* More from Naba Kumar: "As for the other indian based application, I can
tell only one from the gnome community. I don't have any idea about other
communities. Peacock is an text based HTML editor written by Archit Baweja
<bighead@crosswinds.net>. He is from delhi. You can contact him to get the
details about the application. You will also find him hanging around
irc.gimp.com #gnome sometimes. In fact, I came to know about him from
there only. The website for peacock is http://peacock.sourceforge.net "
* RMS <rms@gnu.org> was asked by FN in an email interview: In the West, the
emphasis on 'free' software stresses the 'free' as in freespeech. In the
countries of the Third World, would the 'free beer' approach also be as
important, since for many here the costs of software is a real
insurmountable problem?
His reply: The principal importance of free software is that it respects
your freedom. This is important for computer users everywhere. Free
software means you are free to run the program, free to study the program
and change it to suit your needs, free to redistribute copies, and free to
publish an improved version. In other words, you are free to participate
in a user community where people treat each other with kindness and
helpfulness. Free software provides a secondary benefit which is also
important in countries such as India, where there are many people who can
just barely afford a computer. Namely, users can save on license fees by
lawfully redistributing copies of software to each other. But important
as this is, it is not as important as freedom to live an upright life and
help your neighbor."
* Writes Chennai-based S.GuruPrasanna <sguruprasanna@yahoo.com>: "it all
started when i wanted to write my own text based yahoo messenger. i found
a library called libyahoo that helps to connect with the Yahoo server. i
also found a text based yahoo messenger from sourceforge.net. when i
tried to go through the source code of that messenger, it was very
difficult for me to go through the source code (C code) of some 100 pages
containing lot of functions. I thought that it would be useful if i have
a tool that converts the entire source code as HTML files with all the
calls to various functions as hyper links. this would lead me to the
function's code by clicking that link where it is called. I could not
find such a tool. So thought of developing it and it is now ezvu (easy
view). ezvu reads all the 'C' source files in a directory and generates a
HTML file for each source file. The resulting HTML file contains the
userdefined function calls converted to hyper link that leads to the
function definition. This helps the user/developer to browse through
other's source very easily without having to take the hardcopies (it is my
way, donno abt others) of the entire source and jumping between pages to
keep track of the function calls."

Indian Language Support for the Linux Operating System
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 India, 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.
Indian language support for Linux operating system is done at two modes,
namely the Console mode and the X-Windows mode, with mutual compatibility.
The requirements on the RAM vary with the mode. In the console mode the
RAM requirement is 4 MB while a minimal windows based system requires 6-8
MB. For the cheapest solution, with minimal configuration of resources,
the console mode is preferred. But the comfort and ease of use on GUI
based applications has prompted the X-Windows based solution, at the cost
of slightly more resources.
The native language effort of IndLinux group at the Indian Institute of
Technology, Madras focusses on providing both the console and X-Windows
based local language interface for the Linux operating system. The design
of the solution for X-Windows mode is based on the work [2] by REC Trichy
in collaboration with IIT Kanpur. In either case, the primary goal is to
enable applications to inherit the interface with no or minimal
modification. Further, an application developed in the console-based
environment must work without requiring any modification in the X
environment.
In addition, once support has been developed for a particular language,
the effort to enable any other Indian language should require only changes
to the configuration. To meet this requirement, ISCII [3] in consonance
with the Inscript keyboard layout has been used. So that keyboard and
sound mapping are uniform across all Indian languages. ISCII includes
ASCII as a subset.
Developing a native language interface at an operating system level is a
better proposition compared to developing it at an application level as
the former enables all the applications running on top of the operating
system to inherit the interface. The choice of Linux as the operating
system has been motivated by the fact that Linux is a robust and stable
operatingsystem and free. [FROM THE WEBSITE]

free open source platforms is his dream. This happened on 02 Nov 2001 at
Thiruvananthapuram". Information Kerala Mission, started by the LDF
ministry are well ahead in their plans with Microsoft products based
solutions. They have already started installations at a couple of Grama
Panchayats. "As a part of the exercise, I had enquired about availability
of financial application packages developed for Linux boxes. GnuCash and
Sql-ledger were some packages, but I would like to know whether someone
had seen or developed applications on MySQL/PHP (on thin clients, to
reduce h/w cost overheads and allow scope for thin devices). GnuCash
doesn't use a backend and Sql-Ledger uses PostgreSQL.I would also like to
know whether someone would contribute efforts towards this exercise if I
go ahead with the initial design and develop a prototype. (I sure am
against reinventing the wheel)," he says. The exercise would not be
limited to financial package as it would need to step into areas of
citizen services to be utilised by the local bodies. Initial design could
be made available provided there are volunteers to build and develop the
work.

From: Jason Nunn <jsno@arafura.net.au>
Subject: innuendod R0 released
innuendod- NNTP proxy/spy (revision 0)
availability-
http://jsno.arafuraconnect.com.au/rel/unix_projects/innuendod-0.tar.bz2
this program acts like an NNTP socket proxy- it will accept connections on
119 as though it were a news server. when a client connects, it does a
straight thru connection to an NNTP server (hellstra's NNTP server in our
case).
however... any posts are "captured" and saved to the fs. it also inserts a
few "X-innuendod: " directives into the NNTP header as it's being streamed
to the NNTP server, which gives usenet readers origin information.
all reads and writes to the NNTP are logged. the logging information
contains newgroups, usernames, dates, and subject titles. innuendod
resolves usernames by querying a "gossip" server (a RADIUS mezzianne).
This "quick hack" was written to fullfil Arafura Connects carrier
obligations to track/log users who post articles on usenet. This program
provides us with this needed logging. Primarily, it's so we can nail those
people who post "kiddy porn" into various groups-- we can then hand them
to the feds with the needed evidence etc. that's innuendod's real reason
for existence, hence it's name- "to indirectly remark/accuse" ;).
