Here's another excuse: I *still* have situations where I read mail on
an XTerm. Now, as much as I'd love to see my mother tongue being used,
all I could read of this thread was "?????..."! So, that's one reason
why people might want English as well.
OK, this might be a lame excuse :-). But, as Manoj says, we shouldn't
discourage non-Tamil speakers, otherwise, use of Tamil is fine, I
guess.
Thanks.
