Dear Sandipan,

       We are doing it based on itrans, so that we are making it language 
independent. The decision on thalam decides the format of presentation. We 
have also planned to include a database for ragas like which melakartha raga 
or which janya of the melakartha raga. 
              Presently we are doing for karnatik music. Later on, we can 
generalize it for Hindustani music. 

Best,
K.S. Mithran
