preload engine by language 2010 12 08 - fujiwarat/ibus GitHub Wiki

16:37 fujiwarat: hi preload engine patch is available:
  https://github.com/fujiwarat/ibus/commit/38c13fe3639e0d603af6b8e24f2440137b4e8fbb
16:40 phuang: I still think it is not an important feature
  And I also planed to remove all config access from ibus-daemon in future
16:41 So I am not really want to merge this feature.
 fujiwarat: So many fedora people likes this feature. How about an configure option to enable the feature?
16:42 phuang: Currently, it is OK to use a patch in fedora
16:43 fujiwarat: We already tested it and it's ok.
 phuang: IC
16:44 fujiwarat: Since it includes the GUI, we'd think to upstream in f15 or drop the feature.
16:45 I also guess other distro may like this feature.
 phuang: I don't think so
  Actually, I only see this bug in fedora
 fujiwarat: It's similar with IIIMF.
16:46 phuang: For most users, they don't change locales
 fujiwarat: I think when the locale is changed and no customization, the im list should be updated.
16:47 Some people switch the locales.
16:48 phuang: I don't know how will do it, and how many will do it
  and how many will change locales and wish the ime will be changed too
16:49 probably only when users want to test some locales.
  But it is not a normal case.
16:50 fujiwarat: I don't think people want to run ibus-setup.
16:51 The the IM list is better based on language as the people request it.
16:52 phuang: For people know several languages, they will enable all input methods for those languages
  not only the ime for current languages
  So change ime automatically is not useful.
 fujiwarat: So they want to customize the default list.
16:53 phuang: When they customized, the feature is already disabled
16:54 fujiwarat: Yes, it will be disabled. I think the customizing the list is not useful for the distro users.
16:55 because we setup the recommended IMs per languages.
16:57 How about an configure option? If not, we will discuss how to maintain the internal GUI messages.
16:58 Currently we fedora agreed to enabled the language based by default instead of custom list.
17:01 phuang: I suggest fedora uses the local patch currently.
17:02 fujiwarat: Do you mean we will have a chance to discuss this patch again in the future?
 phuang: I think read and write config in ibus-daemon cause many problems
  already
17:03 And it make the daemon complex
  I have some idea to remove all those code in future
  Include preload_engine, hotkey and etc
17:04 fujiwarat: OK, thx. Personal concern was how to integrate the feature in RHEL6 but I will discuss it internally.
