[ubuntu-in] List of Current To-dos

[74yrs old]

I wish to ensure that baraha type phonetic keyboard layout for all Indian
languages  are included in the LinuxOS - atleast in Ubuntu 7.10  At present
I have discontinued the using ubuntu due to non-availability baraha type
phonetic  for Kannada. Moreover  ubuntu  does not display characters
correctly as in the case of Windows.
As top priority -to ensure correct Character Map as well as single baraha
type phonetic keyboard layout for all Indian languages  are installed either
as default/available in LinuxOS  -for  benefit of  Indian  Linux  users.
