Thank you for this report Jayanta, that's interesting. Would you expect more impact Marathi, Assamese, Sanskrit, Odia, and Kannada following the OCR avaibility? I mean, to my mind Sanskrit is somewhat like Latin in occidental countries, so I'm wouldn't expect a very large frenzy when a new handy tool come to help with transcription. For other languages, I don't know their vernacular popularity, I'll check their Wikipedia article later. Would you expect more possible contributors for them?
