[Wikimediaindia-l] [Wikimedia-in-chn] Wikipedia workshop in Carte Blanche, Chennai

[BalaSundaraRaman]

Thanks Shrinivasan. 

I've added one project proposal to 
http://wiki.ilugc.in/index.php?title=Projects_List#Project_List

I needed to generate audio pronunciation guides for English phrases used in 
Tamil Wiktionary (and other wiktionaries) from pronunciation files for the 
individual words. I started out with the ambitious project and wrote some 
scripts to download and identify candidate files. I tried the Linux cat command 
and it seemed to work. So, I got help from Yuvi Panda and Kishore Kumar (via 
Srikanth) who allowed me to run the scripts from a Linode belonging to KCG 
iCell. However, when I did a test upload, it turned out that the embedded media 
player on Wikimedia Commons stops at the end of the first word. Here, I need the 
help of someone with MATLAB-like media processing experience willing to take 
over the project at

 "That language is an instrument of human reason, and not merely a medium for 
the expression of thought, is a truth generally admitted."
