by Jaswinder Singh
Hi
We have registered a channel named #fuel-discuss on irc.freenode.net.
Also we added one bot(fuelbot) there for helping people through chat if
anybody want to know more about fuel.
We are still working on fuelbot to make it more useful by adding more
features.
You all are invited to join #fuel-discuss
Suggestions and Ideas are welcome for adding features in fuelbot.

[Report] FUEL Marathi Evaluation Meet
by sandeep shedmake
Hi,
A two day workshop on the standardization of Marathi computing terminologies
was organized on February 13-14, 2009 at: Symbiosis Institute of Computer
Studies and Research, Pune under the FUEL project.
The workshop was first of its kind wherein discussion amongst Marathi
linguists, translators and users took place and a consensus reached upon the
evaluation of initial 232 entries (out of total - 578 entries). Due to some
reasons, participants couldn't devote enough time for achieving the target
of evaluating 578 strings.
A round of applause to SICSR, GNUnify'09 team and all FUEL Marathi
Evaluation Meet participants for making FUEL Marathi Evaluation Meet a great
experience towards Marathi Localization (L10n) and contribution to FOSS
(Free and Open Source Software).
The evaluated list in PO file format is available at:
