If people bother to create graphics of the term `free software' in their respective languages, I volunteer to create a `translations in Indian languages` page for FSF India.
The graphics should be small, and in png / jpeg format. (No gifs).
If possible, use a gpl'ed fonts. No need for fancy art work; just black letters on white background.
Why graphics??
Because ISCII is on the way out; being replaced by Unicode but several legacy Operating systems do not support Unicode. That will create problems for people using legacy OS'es, which is a crucial and very important audience.
