Here's something to do. :-)
ITRANS is a program that takes an english transliteration (for example my
name would be jaladhara harShada vyAsa) and converts into a number of
Indian languages. Output can be HTML (UTF-8), LaTeX or Postscript. I
have a package ready that works for UTF-8 and LaTex but perhaps not
postscript properly. I need someone to take this package, fix up any
remaining problems/policy violations and maintain it. Naturally that
person has to understand TeX postscript and how they work in Debian. I
can only be of limited help in that regard but I will gladly sponsor any
volunteer.
Bug #272173 is a request for packaging a Sanskrit macro package for LaTeX.
Once again, I have a more or less complete package which just needs
someone to take it over.
If you are interested in either of these let me know.
