Since it may contain serious unknown problems, it should not be used for important works. For such situations, use our latest stable release uim 1.0.1. Please report us if you find a problem. Mailinglist: uim****@freed***** Bug tracking system: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/ What's New ---------- Following features are highlight of this release. See NEWS for all changes. - icon support for toolbar - menu-based quick IM switching from toolbar And for developers writing uim-related software, there are some major interface changes must be followed. Please update your codes (with UIM_VERSION_REQUIRE()). - Add icon support to helper protocol - Context-originated IM switching of other contexts See doc/COMPATIBILITY for the details and other compatibility issues. Notes for Packagers and System Integrators ------------------------------------------ - Due to the helper protocol incompatibility, 3rd party input-state indicators (aka applets) and bridges must be updated to newer version that supports the new protocol. Handle version dependency carefully - Static library building has been disabled by default. Enable it explicitly if needed Future Direction ---------------- The version 1.0 was bumped as the termination of the development direction of the ex-leader. After then, the design and development policies, and thus goals and direction are changed to the new leader's. Though the 1.1 signals little about the changes, the next milestones show where we go. It is a way to achieve simple, easily extensible and high code-quality input method environment. - uim 1.2.0 Release for internal improvement. No user-visible changes other than resource consumption reduction. The non-standard-conformant Scheme interpreter of libuim will be replaced with newly developed SigScheme to make a room for next leap. - uim 1.3.0 Release for internal simplification. No user-visible changes. The complicated C part of uim which prevents extensions, design improvements and automated input method tests will be turned into Scheme codes or optimized out. - uim 1.4.0 and later The time for drastic reconstruction. Many user-visible changes. The bridge and IM interface will be revised for better focus and reset handlings, and the composer framework will be introduced for extensible IM development. -- Etsushi Kato ek.ka****@gmail*****
