I could volunteer to help in this regard. As for keyboard layouts,
I've been involved for some time in keyboard layouts and xkb mappings
and somewhat related X hacking and submitting patches upstream for
various OLPC keyboard layouts; and as for general feedback, I've
already been trying to do it from pilot(s) in India as much as time
has permitted me till now...
