Good idea, I was wondering whether there was any interest in bringing back an IM switcher. I hope you'll work closely with the X and desktop projects.

I'd like to propose a project about Input Method for OpenSolaris.

The scope of this project would be:

1. To support IIIMF (which is currently the defualt IM framework on Solaris) on OpenSolaris, including building/packaging, bug fixing, and adding new features.

2. To support more input method frameworks on OpenSolaris, such as SCIM and UIM, both are popular IM frameworks on various Linux distributions. And to monitor new IM technologies on *IX systems, such as IM-Bus (which would be the next generation unified IM framework).

3. To host intelligent input method implementations, such as SunPinyin (developed by Sun Asian G11N Center, shipped since Solaris 10, and would be opensource'd to OS.o), which is a SLM (Statistical Language Model) based IME.

This project could provide more choices to customers, and attract more developers, especially in Asian areas. Thus help the adoption of OpenSolaris in Asia.

This project will be endorsed by Internalization Community, the leaders initially would be Fuyuki Hasegawa, Naoyuki Ishimura, and myself (all of us are Sun employees) . We will invite more IM developers around the world, as the lead engineers.

Any suggestions and comments are welcome!
