Hi Vinod, 2009/7/9 vinod kumar <vinod.kumar.trf@gmail.com>:
Could someone help me on the process to add bangla and malyalam languages to Koha.
I was unable to comprehend the entire meaning of your question. Are you asking about a) having a OPAC whose interface is in Bangla? or b) having the capability to catalogue and search in Bangla? or c) Both a and b above? Now, if your answer is : "a" then for 3.x it's work-in-progress atm. Me and a librarian colleague of mine are working on it at present. If you know bangla, you are most welcome to come in and contribute, that way the work will finish faster :) "b" then its already there and has been there for like ages. Just make sure that you follow the instructions about setting the collation and all to utf-8 for the MySQL database and you should be good. FWIW, even back in the days when Koha didn't support Unicode out of the box (instead going with ISO-8859-1 character encoding), it was still very much doable [1] "c" I suppose you can understand what the answer to that one is =) hth, -indra
