Indic Transliteration - Opensource

[Raxit Sheth]

Dear BarCampers,

I come to know just few days back about Indic Transliteration System <opensource>
<Thanks to Shantanu Oak, to point out me this. >

Transliteration is like if you type in English "Kya haal chaal hain" it will convert to equivalent Hindi, or other language, I.e. you can say Easy Typing for Indian Language. It is different from Translation !

You may want to have look at

http://www.var-x.com/gamabhana

Currently supports, Hindi,Marathi <Devnagari>, Gujarati,Punjabi, Telugu,Tamil,Urdu. <Hindi,Marathi works well, South indian languages again the problem is we dont know this language so unable to test it.>




This system is supporting few websites currently, and based on my personal opinion it works fine with Hindi/Marathi  still I am not able to test as totally unaware about South Indian languages.

The system is completly JavaScript and hence can be Integrated with many CMS like including wordpress. <drupla plugin is already out as per my knowledge>

Action Just Taken before few minutes. :
