Simos sent this notice to the gnome-i18n list:
"Hi All,
There is a meeting scheduled for tomorrow Friday, 07.07.2006, at 19:00
GMT, on Freenode, channel #xkbconfig.

Sergey (svu) is organising the meeting to discuss rather technical
issues about keyboard layout support in GNOME.

The agenda includes:
 1. GSwitchit API as GNOME-oriented keyboard services. Including GTK
widget, gconf configuration, DBUS server etc
2. Whether gswitchit should go to separate project or become a real
(non-virtual) part of some existing one.
3. Does it make sense to integrate SCIM with gswitchit?

Especially if you know anything about SCIM, please join up. The current
situation is a bit messy with two independent keyboard layout
subsystems. It appears it would be good to expose our users to a single
interface by integrating the two.

Thanks,
Simos
Press Relations Assistant
of Sergey (the #xkbconfig guru)."


So if you have any input (or suggestions for further discussion),
please join the discussions.
