Hoi,
Yesterday we had quite a momentous day at translatewiki.net. After a lot of
preparation our server was upgraded and we now have a much more responsive
system. It is a joy again to localise; the system is so much more
responsive..

What may be of as much interest to this list is that we had someone asking
for another Indian language.
Saurashtra<http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Category:User_saz>is a
language that is written in three scripts according to Ethnologue;
Tamil, Devanagari and the Saurashtra script. At this stage we are still
getting the formalities in place; we have created a portal page and we are
at the point where we are asking for the "autonym"  or the name of the
language in the language. Another question we will ask is what language will
be the fall back language.

This new language brings new opportunities to bring Indian culture and
knowledge to the Internet.
Thanks,
       GerardM
