[OSGeo-Discuss] Grass to Indian languages

[RAVI KUMAR]

Hi Markus,
  the Free Software Foundation, which has representation in OSGeo India chapter
  is doing work in this regard. 
  
  "Files for Marathi and Hindi are there, but messages aren't much
  translated therein."
  Hopefully this will be covered.
  Cheers
  Ravi Kumar

to take efforts to the concrete - do you see a chance to work
on the translation of GRASS user messages to Indian languages?
This is something which I/we cannot cover due to language barrier.

Files for Marathi and Hindi are there, but messages aren't much
translated therein. A perfect task for a user since no development
skills are needed! Maybe you could find people to work on this?

Best
Markus
