I am travelling in Bangalore right now, but will get
all this material up on the Sarai site as soon as I
can after returning to Delhi on the 20th.

I am not sure that one can learn much from the slides
themselves. If you are interested in Indian language
publishing with TeX/LaTeX, please talk to people at
Sarai (off-list, or on the indlinux-group mailing list).
I can also put you in touch with the people that worked
on the project.
 
Besides this work, there is also XeTeX which allows
Unicode in TeX/LaTeX documents. This needs some minor
work to port it from MacOSX to Linux (mostly a matter
of modifying ttf fonts to ones appropriate for TeX,
specifying fonts, and testing). A link is at
http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=xetex

Please do let us know if you are interested in working on
this.

Regards,
Gora
