BARAHA and NUDI are KARATAKA and DAMANAKA of KANNADA.
_________________________________________________________
BARAHA and NUDI have DESTROYED the the COMPETATION between KANNADA SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS.
There were 30 Kannada Software Developers before BARAHA and NUDI.
Now we have only TWO KANNADA SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS.
Govt. of Karnataka is promoting SINGLE STOLEN / IPR COPIED UDI KANNADA FONTS sold by KGP / KAGAPA By Srinatha Sasthry and Narasimha Murthy.
BARAHA and NUDI are not Kannada Software Developers. DESTROYERS of KANNADA LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT.
BARAHA and NUDI are KILELRS of KANNADA SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT.
BARAHA and NUDI are using STOLEN PROPERTY to make NAME and FAME.
KSD issues — prevailing mistrust among Kannadigas
By Sada Shiva , Thu Sep 21, 2006 6:30 am
I had posted in my last post how our Kannada language is rich in culture and legacy. Here is the continued part of it.
Going through the documents at E-Kavi’s online archive (http://ellakavi.wordpress.com), we get to know that many enthusiast Kannadigas began to work on the implementation of Kannada on digital gadgets (computers, handhelds, etc).There were around 30 software research groups (companies) which worked on our Kannada language implementation on computers. Many had developed a rich set of fonts required for high quality printing. Others had brought out some of the very good softwares for DTP work and Development kits for application development for the handheld devices. In all there was a healthy competition among the many Kannada software developers which the government or some other organization could choose from for software services and implementation those willing to localize the computerization.
The entry of Baraha [by Sheshadri Vasu from USA] and Nudi softwares [Nudi by KAGAPA / KGP] have killed the business of all these firms. Now due to the mistrust created by these two entities, the doom of great misbelief looms large over the Kannada software development arena.
Somedays back one Kannada friend in this forum asked for a trial software, but it was not given most probably for the feat that more fonts may be stolen.
These two entities [BARAHA \nand KAGAPA / KGP / NUDI] have created such a mistrust that nobody is coming forward to write any useful software for Kannada, why should they, when all the standards are stupidly made and our mindless government itself has declared that Nudi is the sole package to be used in all Government offices. This is a mindless way of our own government killing the business of Kannada enthusiasts.
Unfortunately not many Kannadigas have tried to set the things right in this front, which has a direct implication on the survival of Kannada. May be all these known to many Kannadigas.

Otherwise it only means that they have done every mindless thing that they are accused of.
Friends, put in your suggestions as to what should be done at least from now on.
Let this discussion be a brainstorming one even if it leads to flame wars.
Why should not we have a flame war if it paves way for a good result?
