[opensuse-m17n] What happened to Mike Fabian and his documents?

A few years ago I wanted to read some of Mike Fabian's documents because I was running into some of the same problems that had been solved, but which weren't solved in my work environments. These two environments aren't Suse/Opensuse. In one or two of my environments, backspace deletes an entire character in the input buffer to a process, but only deletes a half-width column in the terminal emulator, so the display is scrambled. Of course I want backspace to delete an entire character in both places. In one of my environments, Konsole is running, but I have to set henkan displays to an old method instead of what's been popular for the past 10 years (on-the-spot or whatever it's called), and I couldn't get the taskbar to display more than a single icon. The end user would be able to input Japanese but that single icon is constant; it doesn't tell the user if they're inputting in Roman-kana mode or plain Roman mode. I think I solved the backspace problem in that environment but still gave up a few years ago. I guess Mike Fabian left Suse. Where did he go? Why did Mike Fabian's documents leave Suse? They're still important. Are they available somewhere?

In openSUSE 13.2, in Konsole, downarrow↓displays↓wrong. The file encoding, Konsole terminal's encoding, and vim's encoding are all UTF-8. Five↓↓↓↓↓downarrows↓↓↓↓↓look↓↓↓↓↓like↓↓↓↓↓three. vim counts characters properly but the display is wrong. more, cat, etc., display wrong. I used Suse 11.0 for six years. Konsole had no problem with downarrows.
