Many thanks to all of you who have participated in our first round of
IIIMF package testing. Your time and effort is much appreciated.
A mirror of the iiimf packages with apt/yum repositories is now
available: please visit
http://iiimf.fedora.us/ and follow the
instructions there for further information.
Mirrors:

The Fedora Project will be adopting a revolutionary new Input Method
system in the upcoming release of the Fedora Core 2. We would like to
extend an invitation at this time to East Asian users in particular to
test this preliminary release and provide us with feedback so we can
improve the software and ensure that the Input Methods will be easier,
more efficient and pleasant to use.
Intranet/Internet Input Method Framework (IIIMF) is the next
generation Input Method Framework set to replace the legacy X Window
System Input Method (XIM) used by existing Input Methods such as
chinput, xcin, kinput2, ami and many others. As the technology is
still at its infancy,
wider testing effort by community is needed to expediate the maturity
of the technology.
IIIMF server loads Language Engines (LE) dynamically at runtime as
requested by clients. In this first round of testing, four LEs are
available:
+ iiimf-le-inpinyin for Simplified Chinese (zh_CN.UTF-8)
+ iiimf-le-xcin for Traditional Chinese (zh_TW.UTF-8)
+ iiimf-le-canna for Japanese (ja_JP.UTF-8)
+ iiimf-le-hangul for Korean (ko_KR.UTF-8)
If you wish to participate in this first round of testing, a Testing
Guide is now available at
http://apac.redhat.com/iiimftest/testing-guide/. It will give you the
necessary information to set up IIIMF and to use the LE specific to
your locale. Please note that this round of testing will end on
Sunday, 29 Feb 2004.
