Rereading my previous email, I think its tone may com= e across as rude/angry.
It was not my intention. It is hard to pr= operly convey a tone with text. I am sorry.

With all due respect for th= e work that you are doing Sameer, I would
like to disagree here. People often speak like this - "this is written=
in Marathi, Hindi, Nepali". While they are referring to the language b= ut
most people don=E2=80=99t know the underlying script name.

At Least according to me, if someone is unfamiliar = with the term Devanagari, he can easily look up what it means or look at th= e text to its right and infer the meaning from that.

Rather I would suggest= that we add new aliases for Devanagari - like
Marathi, Nepali... whichever language is using the same script.

Devanagari is a widely used script, many languag= es use it, such as: Konkani, Bodo, Rajasthani, Hariyanvi, Bhojpuri, Maithil= i, Newa, Kashmiri, Dogri, Kumaoni etc.
Therefore it is better to = write just one entry that demonstrates that Emacs supports this character s= et, after all this is the main purpose of etc/HELLO.

With all due respect for the work that you are doing Sameer, I would
like to disagree here. People often speak like this - "this is written=
in Marathi, Hindi, Nepali". While they are referring to the language b= ut
most people don=E2=80=99t know the underlying script name.

Rather I would suggest that we add new aliases for Devanagari - like
Marathi, Nepali... whichever language is using the same script.
