The
project is structured in modules. Would all modules be implemented,
the project will produce:
A full computer operating system and all the
necessary office and entertainment applications needed by a
normal computer user, and all of it entirely in Khmer language.
A user will only see Khmer language script in his screen. The
system will include full documentation in Khmer, in
electronic and paper formats.
Free office and Internet (e-mail and browsing) programs for the
MS Windows platform.
A “development library” (a set of programs) to be used by software
developers to include support for the Khmer language in their
applications. Documentation of the development library.
A set of up to 50 computer
fonts (Unicode OpenType fonts) to be used in the application
menus, for word‑processing or for computer design.
A keyboard
layout, supporting drivers and 5,000 physical keyboards that
support the above mentioned Unicode fonts.
An installation disk
that –including all the above software and documentation- is
very easy to install. Manufacture of 5.000 copies of this
installation disk, 1,000 of them accompanied by full printed
documentation.
Training materialsaddressed to end-users, including the use of the system,
of the applications and a training course for typing with the
new keyboard.
Computer end-user trainers trained
to teach the new system using the above mentioned materials.
University professors, students and software development company
personnel trained on advanced Linux and OpenSource softwareand application development using the Khmer script
support tools provided by the project. Computer vendor
personnel trained on the installation and parameterization of
the system.
OpenSource Expertise Centers in Universities,
including trained professors and students, computers and
Internet connections.
Marketing materials
for deployment of the system.
Widespread publicity
of the system either directly or through computer and software
vendors.
