This is wonderful, our listers might love to read this. Hence, I am
copying this to the list.

    Phatak> One of my colleague has (Prof. Somen Bhattacharjee
    Phatak> somen@iopb.res.in) has done some work on Bengla (I think
    Phatak> he has used LaTeX to typeset some of Tagore's poem).

I have talked to him once an year ago, I presume, he is working on
Oriya TeX too. I dont know its status at the moment.
