The support for tamil in the initial version of itrans package has been possible only because of the help I received from Sriram Tyagarajan. I would like to thank him for his help in making me relate the itrans package to the tamil alphabet, and his patience in proof-reading all the printouts I sent him.
The current version of ITRANS makes use of Tamil enhancements from many other people, particularly Siddharthan Ramachandramurthi who added glyphs to the tamil font, and to Shree for many modifications to the IFM file.
The Washington Tamil font (wntml) was created by the Humanities and Arts Computing Center of the University of Washington, USA. I would like to thank them for making this font available as freeware.

The current version of tamil.mf Wntml font that is distributed with ITRANS has been developed by Siddharthan Ramachandramurthi, it includes updates to a few of the original glyphs, and it also adds a few more characters to the font.
