Sorry, thats my own remark.
Sivakumar & Akilan have similar opinion.
No, I also think the same way.
Some of the members (including coordinator) have misunderstood communication
part. Their view is "Not all people can benefit if they don't understand."
Let me counter it in two points:
1. If People aren't allowed to post in Tamil(or malayalam/hindhi) don't
think they will post in English. They may not post at all. Many people are
only reading in this list because they can understand English whereas it is
difficult for them to write a decent English note and they don't want to be
seen writing like that in a public list. Imagine what would happen if
Thirukural wasn't published because they wouldn't let Thiruvalluvar publish
in Tamil? Then No one would have got that information.
2. As somebody told already, you cannot expect Thiruvalluvar/kamban to
provide a translation just because you don't know Tamil. Agreed that you
have to go to shop to see those books but you are getting mails
automatically in your inbox. Only because of this we agreed for a tag.
Expecting translation "is suppessive & biased" IMO.
