The behavior changes was made according to user opinions and suggestions, and gcin is a standalone input method platform so it and its components are not used anywhere else. On the other hand, this is not a "major" new version. The author always bumps up numbers when he has a new release. In this case, the numbers just bumped from 2.7.9 to 2.8.0 because he never uses versions like 2.7.10. There is no "major" and "minor" releases for gcin, the number just bumps up and each release always includes bugfix and behavior adjustments to previous release. I'm very certain that only Taiwanese users will be affected since its behavior design is very focused on local user input habits and experience. Please help submit this version. Thanks, You-Cheng Hsieh
