I apologize for this. So chewing is not good enough? I guess can reconsider branching of gcin. You seem to want to continue maintaining FC-3+ branches for a while, and your users want it. BTW, is there any scim-gcin bridge? Warren Togami wtogami@xxxxxxxxxx
Hi, Togami: There is no scim-gcin bridge. I know Suzhe (scim author) want to cooperate with Edward Liu(gcin author), but Edward reject. (for many reason) Input method platform is like terminal emulator. No one single platform meets everyone's needs. Gcin is written in C, so it has no g++ compatibility issue. GTK/QT immodules of Gcin are very stable, and are highly compatible with Realplayer, Acrobat, Firefox, Openoffice, and many other applications. Gcin meets Traditional Chinese users' most needs, when scim and uim do not. Gcin is very popular among Taiwan and Hong Kong users, and has been official package of Mandriva and Archlinux. Again, so do I request only FC5 branch or I can request for FC4 and FC3 branch, too? -- Chung-Yen Chang (candyz0416@xxxxxxxxx) RHCE Cert Number: 806200500202093 MSN: candyz0416@xxxxxxx Gizmo: candyz0416 Skype: candyz0416 http://blog.kandix.idv.tw/ -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
