Hello A S Alam,
thanks for your reply, and no, you did not miss anything, the e-mail
was kindly quickly directed to you (by bubulle).
Did you also do the locale file for pa_IN (e-mail address
amanlinux@netscape.net)?
From your reply I assume GNU General Public License V2 or later is
fine for both files?
Thanks again!
Best regards
Helge
