[Please excuse the top-post...I am responding using my mobile phone while waiting at the postoffice] 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. On Sun, 9 Nov 2003 10:41pm, hugh wrote:
It looks like Mike Fabian left SuSE. There is no posting by him any more. Along with his departure, the intenationalization project within SuSE seems to be in virtual halt.
Something that worked with SuSE-8,2 iclucing jpilot for Asian languages does not work any more with SuSE-9.0.
Reflecting current statuts of Linux, you will see not many Japanese or Koreans are posting to this email list. Except me (I am a Korean), they are mostly foreigners who are forced to use those languages.
It is a sad status of computing in Asia which rely on MS for everything about electronic transaction.
