Re: Debian Installer team seeking for translators : Serbian (sr), Croatian (hr), Hindi (hi), others



Hi Christian!
I am pretty bummed that there's no work initiated on
the Hindi front. I'd like to give it some of my time.
I guess once the project gets started people might
show some interest.
Can you please activate Hindi at
debian-boot@lists.debian.org.
I've read the page mentioned by you. I'll need some
help getting started since I don't have a vernacular
keyboard.
