Yes, we did.

Blog not mentioning anything specific on Indic, since we actually worked on

Trying to improve it from Fedora 24 onwards. Have big todo list for F24,

Being one of the long time contributor to Fedora L10N, i think your inputs
will be very helpful to improve this situation. We already have some plans
