[Fedora-i18n-list] May I extend IIIMF to support Vietnamese input method

[Tran Anh Tuan]

I'm a windows developer, new to Unix programming with some skills on C++, 
and .NET technology. I'm now studying to port into Unix programming (such as 
Fedora).
My first interest is helping Vietnamese people can use easily input 
Vietnamese with built-in support.
Vietnamese input method basis on latin-characters and accents. User type an 
accent anywhere in a word to put accent for it (for instance, a*s* or
a*1*-> a'; no
* s*i or noi*s* - > no'i) *(o' is an unicode character)*. In general, the 
rule is not complicated.
- Every word have can have only one accent.
Anyone idea?
 Sincerelly,

Actually the iiimf-le-unit package included in current Fedora Core already
should support Vietnamese, though I haven't tested it.

Would you be able to try that first and see how it works for you? :)
