I have read this topic at the [EMAIL PROTECTED], in Japanese. I tried to do my best to translate the topic, but I may did something wrong in translation.
I hope someone who knows this more better than me will answer your question. # If he writes the answer in Japanese, on [EMAIL PROTECTED], then # I will try to translate it again.

Can anyone on the list check this ? -- Taketoshi Sano: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
