BOSS - Not the Shivaji's "Bachelor of Social Service".
I just came across this new BOSS. It is "Bharat Operating System Solutions" Linux distribution by CDAC, Chennai. CDAC is Indian government controlled software development organisation. BOSS has lot of special packages in regional languages. Currently its fully functional versions are in Hindi and Tamil (latest completely localized tamil version of BOSS 2.0). CDAC's ultimate goal is to have in all the 22 indian offcial languages. BOSS also comes in live CDs. And all this for free ! Got to try out when I get free time space. www.bosslinux.in

It is an excellent initiative from Indian Govt. Even Kalam mentioned in his interview to focus on open source because that's what we can afford to.
