hi rajkumar,
That's great. Actually, we are not doing localization yet but concentrating on internationalization. We at Sun are contributing to multiple open-source projects for indian languages:
A> Mozilla B> OpenOffice C> XIM/IIIM (Input method) D> X11/Gnome
We have completed indian language enabling on most of the above-mentioned. If you can help with localization, that would be well appreciated. Let me know what you do and how you can help.

hello Prabhat,
I am Rajkumar, one of the member of Indic computing initiative. Indic computing project http://indic-computing.sourceforge.net is a group of volunteers interested in enabling computing in Indian languages. One of the stated aims of our project is to reach out to other groups both commercial as well as volunteer and to work with them to avoid duplication of work and to make better use of scarce resources available.
I had a chance to talk to Naveen Gangadhar about the work Sun is doing in localization, and he referred me to you. It will be interesting to know more about the work you are doing and we are also interested to help you out where ever possible.
