hi all,
People joining this list beware that posts will also be Tamil, the
language of the state of Tamilnadu and tolerate and co-operate or
learn Tamil.
this is not the Linux Users Group of the State of Tamilnadu. It is the
Chennai
chapter of the Indian Linux Users Group. India is a country with around 35
major languages and hundreds of minor languages.
People in ILUGC who are also member of Mumbai, Delhi, other metro and
major cities' linux user groups kindly shed light on this. We can get to
know whether people are allowed to post in their state language or English
or their own mother tongue(those which are spoken by minimum people and the
state language is different). And how they handle such threads.
And, except for a few
fanatics in a few cities, a country which enjoys this linguistic diversity
and
is very tolerant of other languages.
Yes all indians respect each others' language.
I appeal all Tamil people, also to post in Tamil. Yesterday I was
alone and Padhu, Thanigai, Arun and few more have joined now :-)
Here I am +1
so non Tamil people are not supposed to post in Tamil???
If they have such an interest towards the language tamil which has the
second oldest grammar in Indian languages(Ofcouse tholkappiam's date may be
even older) let them convert from beschi to
veeramamunivar<
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constanzo_Beschi>.
We aren't forcing anyone.
I expect more and more people join this initiative so that ten-twenty
five years down the line we can dream the other way..
dream on - it will not happen.
You are against "dream come true"....
A decade back the situation was different and now its totally different..
please go and start a Tamil linux group
There are already a bunch of tamil linux user groups.

If there is any suggested way to post in Tamil or English let everyone
follow it.
To my knowledge there are people who are not able to post properly in
english get some sarcastic comments here. We can allow them to ask their
questions in the state language(here tamil).
*Solution for this issue : *
*Thread specific:*
*Thread strarting : *Let the thread starter post in the language he knows
more - tamil or english. If he knows both lang(eng & tam) let him add the
translation or else some one who is proficient in both languages post
translation.
*Thread replies :* Replies can be both in English and tamil. If the
translation from tamil to english or english to tamil is needed, whoever has
free time can post replies in the thread with translations(I dont know
whether this will be feasible).
*Achievements:* Everyone gets answer/suggestion here. Even in archives there
is answer for all questions. We can avoid this thread which gets started
every 3 months...
*Disadvantage: *Threads become big in size(twice or more. I know list admin
wont allow this method). Some confusions may arise.
Adding Thamizh or Tamil or Tamiz in the subject is needed when someone types
tamil words with english alphabets. If the subject is in thamizh alphabets
why ask some one to add Thamizh or Tamil or Tamiz in the subject.
If so there will be a need for subject additions(If we all respect each
other):
Kannadam
Malayalam
Urudu
Telugu
....etc., in all linux user groups.
I posted the above to come to a conclusion let us not start a war from here.
regards,
Ignacius
