About
FUEL is a Red Hat initiated project to ensure a standardized and consistent look in a desktop through collaborative innovation. This helps the users to understand and use same translations across all applications on a desktop. Malayalam Translations are often done by technically qualified people who are proficient in both English and Malayalam. To make it more effective, we are introducing the localized desktop to the common people or users and get their feedback. Lecturers and students from various colleges and universities in Kerala are invited for the same. All support and assistance for this event is provided by Zyxware Technologies, Thiruvananthapuram.

The event organized at NITC is an introductory session for FUEL. The audience will be introduced to the existing Malayalam desktop, different applications in Malayalam etc, make them understand the need of FUEL and then again with the same audience the FUEL completion will be done later in the next session which we plan to conduct by February end.
