some packages already have a few Indian languages like hindi, marathi,
punjabi, tamil, bengali, malayalam, etc.. listed.

however  they have "Permissions:  Closed".  In that case how does one
join a particular team ?

i have libpango1.0 (ver1.6.0b) for layout and rendering and
libpango1.0 common (ver1.6.0b) modules and config files.
Is that the right library package for displaying Devanagari scripts ? 
Do i need to download any fonts or are they installed in the system. 
I noticed that Applications>Accessories>CharacterMap does have the
support but how can i use it with gedit.
Are indic script glyphs supported in OO-1.1 (i use Ubuntu 4.10).
