by Rajesh Ranjan
Hi,
As wrote earlier, now we have "Computer Translation style and convention
guide for Hindi (Beta)" ready with us.
You can download from here:
https://fedorahosted.org/fuel/wiki/fuel-hindi#FUELComputerTranslationstyl...
>From the very starting of localization of computer in Hindi language, we
have felt the need of one style and convention guide, a guidelines which can
be treated as a reference point for Hindi language community working for the
localization. I have tried to collect and compile all the info and given all
these information in form of a guide named "Computer Translation style and
convention guide for Hindi." In this guide, several important aspect of
localisation have been discussed. Fonts, Collations, Plural Forms, White
spaces, Accelerators, Program Syntax, Functions, Tags, Placeholders, Message
Length, Numerals, Calender, Honorific Usages, Acronyms,
Product/Brand/Company Name, Keys Name, Abbreviations, Legal Statements,
Terminology, Punctuations, Units and Measurements, General Spelling
Guidelines, Anusvar and Chandravindu, Use of Nukta, Cardinals & Ordinals,
Indeclinable, Hyphen, Glidal ie Shrutimulak 'ya' or 'wa', Basic Quality
Parameters etc. are some of the areas tried to be covered in this guide.
This work has been uploaded at FUEL svn in both odt and pdf format. In free
content zone, we have very less resources like this. So hopefully it will be
very much useful for the broader Hindi community.
We will appreciate any suggestions related to this guide. Please send your
remark on the mailing list itself. If you want to change in odt file please
send to me off list by enable keeping the record/track change on.

Foreign Currency values should not be translated....
by Naveen Kumar
Hi,
This is just to remind & formally make a note of what I mentioned in the Rajesh's presentation. The foreign currency Values (e.g. $100,£200) should not be translated because the exchange rate between 2 currencies is temporal in nature (e.g. $1=Rs.50.00 as on 1/1/2003 and $1=Rs.45.6 as on 1/1/2011).

FUEL for Malayalam
by Ani Peter
Hi,
I am glad to inform that Swathanthra Malayalam Computing (SMC), the
active Malayalam community in open source would like to conduct FUEL for
Malayalam. We have arranged an event called "Malayalam Translation
Quality" - FUEL for Malayalam" on 06th Feb 14:40hrs at NITC along with
the Fossmeet. Lecturers and students from various colleges and
universities in Kerala are invited for the same. All support and
assistance for this event is provided by Zyxware Technologies,
Thiruvananthapuram.
SMC takes care of different Malayalam Localization projects like Fedora,
Debian, Firefox, KDE, Gnome, WWW-ML etc. SMC is a strong Malayalam
community driven by Malayalam speaking malayalees from all walks of life
around the world, working on different softwares and applications in
Malayalam for Malayalam and other Indian languages. More details about
SMC projects at: http://wiki.smc.org.in/.
I have also attached the pre-evaluated Malayalam Fuel translation file.
Appreciate if you could commit it to the svn. The event organised at
NITC is an introductory session for FUEL. The audience will be
introduced to the existing Malayalam desktop, different applications in
Malayalam etc, make them understand the need of FUEL and then again with
this same audience the FUEL completion will be done later in the next
session. The Malayalam Fuel po file will be finalized during this second
session which we plan to conduct by February end.
Thanking you
Best regards
Ani Peter
