HI Sudhakar Chandrashekaran (Thaths right?),
Actually indlinux is working on the i18n for both KDE and Gnome. We are presently testing and creating fonts for indic scripts right now. Unfortunately one of the problems that we are facing is inadequate support for indic scripts. We are also helping the pango people. However it now seems that NCST is planning to get the support into the X windows specification so that i18n for Indian languages will be supported in X itself while NCST will donate the linux code.

Hi Dennis Smit,
	Thanks for your kind e-mail. I was looking into details such what is 
community's direction og having a i18n capable terminal emulator in GNOME.
A terminal emulator which is capable of input/display/edit of non ASCII text 
covering at least unicode support.
	Gnome-terminal's base widget zvtterm claims to have unicode support, 
gnome-terminal does not seem to. 
	Is anybody working on this, either gnome-terminal or any others for 
having a i18n capable terminal emulator for GNOME 2.0 ?
thanks,
suresh
