Please hold it off for the moment, Gora. Vikram never contacted me
regarding the GNOME translations. Pramod is away on some work, so maybe
he isn't checking these mails.

I  have contacted Pramod a couple of times via the mail links provided on the GNOME co-ordination page and the Sampada page but he has not replied till date.
I was not aware that Nadig is on the commit list and hence did not contact him.

The translations that Vikram has piled up has been copied (by what he
himself disclosed to me) from the translation interface
(http://translate.sampada.net) of Kannada sourceforge project and it
would be unfair for all those people who participated in it, if we don't
add appropriate credits. The translations are also not reviewed.

True, I do not think that duplication of work is necessary.  But I do feel that the glossary should have been committed earlier in order to enable others to use it. No one should be forced us to reinvent the wheel.

I'll export the latest glossary from the interface, get it reviewed asap
and shall send it across to you for committing.

Cool. Thanks.

Regards,
