Our goals
We have a two-fold aim at present: (a) in the near to medium term we are focussing on localizing Gnome, KDE, etc., in Oriya, (b) over the longer term, we hope to develop a user-friendly version of Linux that is in Oriya at all levels visible to the casual user.

How to contribute
We are looking for open-source developers to work with us. We are faced with technical, linguistic, and organizational challenges. Anybody with enthusiasm is invited to contact us, regardless of experience. Your feedback and suggestions are also solicited. Come join us, the life that you change may be your own.
