These probably are features that didn't get merged into the trunk.  I noticed 
that the tuxtype-indic branch is gone - I have no idea how that happened, 
unless I somehow did it inadvertently while doing the reorganization of the 
source tree.  It should be pretty easy to find out when the branch got 
removed, revert a local copy to that revision, copy the branch, and add it 
back.  There could also be a more automated way to do that in svn that I 
don't know about.

I'm afraid I don't have any direct knowledge of these code changes - about the 
only thing I've done with tuxtype in recent months was to reorganize the tree 
with more standard directory names.

At any rate, the Indic languages do seem to work on my machine as of my last 
svn update.  For some ssh-related reason I'm having trouble updating right 
now.

HTH
