Hi All,

    We had this session on open source language summit happened at Red Hat
Pune office.
Anish presented on brief history regarding ibus-typing-booster how it
evolved over the time from indic-typing-booster to ibus-typing-booster.

     If followed by Demonstration of features by me and then testing event.

     I am glad to mention everyone appreciated it and agreed that when they
earlier tested  (before one year may be) it was had some usability issues
and now they are not due to options available in setting and interested in
using it more. Around 20+ participants were there including some Debian
developers (Kartik, VasudevK).

     Following are the suggestions and some bugs, Satya will reports these
soon against itb in more details.

     1. It should be thoroughly tested in Zanata and lokalize which most of
the l10n people use for long time.
     2. ibus-typing-booster must support surrounding text. Krishnababu
shown me this error.
     3. U+200D is not getting committed in user db (Ani peter) reported
this.
     4. We are committing space after each selection that annoys some of
the users :) So we got request from Shankar for making it optional, the
same way we have other things optional.

    I am planning for bit more improved webpage for ibus-typing-booster
project. Work in progress for it :)  But if you wanna take a look at it. It
is available at openshift [1] presently.  Suggestions are welcome.

    Would like to Thanks Anish, Mike for wonderful work in last 1+ year on
itb, i hope with more such event we can achieve our goals behind this
project and also thanks to Sneha for help on webpage [1]

Cheers,
Pravin Satpute
