I'm sorry to see mike fabian is not with the project anymore. Mike and crew really
I understand the feeling. I am an English speaker, but need a full Japanese environment.
Even though I cannot claim to be an expert, I'm interrested in teaming up with folks to try to solve internationalization problems.
The problems that I go through (SuSE 8.2/9.0 japanese install), might have parrellels with what you go through with Korean. I force apps to English mode when things are desperate or dicy.
Perhaps we need to come up with our own ways of testing and evaluating in a sort've pooled fashion? What do you think?
FYI: I am sunning SuSE 8.2 on physical and VMware based systems as well as a SuSE 9.0 system in VMware -- all Japanese.

I am sorry. I basically gave up on 9.0. My understanding on m17n is so limited that I cannot affort to spend time on it. Unless I can find any substitute for jpilot and kde-pilot, or unless anyone successfully recompile jpilot or kde-pilot. Evolution still does not work for Asian languages. I am not going to upgrade my desktop to 9.0. I found that SuSE-9.0 does not seem to offer any new things. Still gtk1 (gtk2 does not seem to work properly for me). Still Gnome-2.2. It still does not allow me to compile linux-2.6.0-test kernels. My favorite window manager AfterStep is gone. maybe some more.... It just did not make sense for me. Well, I cannot make my laptop go back to 8.2. Forget it. Regards, Hugh
