The Fedora I18N Team invites you kindly to participate in a survey
to provide feedback on the SCIM (Simple Common Input Method [1])
platform for Asian language input. Packages are available in Fedora Core
Development and Fedora Extras, and also for RHEL 4.
The survey is available now at
https://www.keysurvey.com/survey/80474/2da7/ [2]
where more details can be found including package installation instructions.
The survey has been translated into the following languages: Bengali, Chinese,
Gujarati, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, and Punjabi.
The goal of the survey is to find out what users see as the main strengths
and weaknesses of SCIM to help provide focus on the most important
improvements needed from the point of view of users.
The survey will run until the end of Friday 25th November, UTC.
We hope to receive lots of responses from a wide part of the community.
A summary of the results will be made available publicly later.
Thank you for your time. And special thanks to the SCIM developers
and community for creating SCIM.
Jens Petersen on behalf of the Fedora I18N and Translation Teams

Thank you to all those who participated in the SCIM survey conducted
online last month. There was a total of 120 responses
(half of them were for Simplified Chinese and a fifth for Japanese).
Overall the feedback by users on SCIM was quite positive:
https://www.keysurvey.com/report/80474/-1/87ca
Some of the suggestions and comments made include:
- having an option to hide the scim IME panel
- each IME should provide help on keybindings in the help dialog
- better IME icons
- better translations for some languages
- adding support for Greek letters to scim-input-pad
- easier way to input signs and symbols from scim-anthy and other IMEs
- Korean users find native input somewhat slow
- Korean and Indian users would prefer a different hotkey toggle to Ctrl-Space
The results are also available in csv format from:
http://people.redhat.com/petersen/scim/ScimSurveyResults.csv
and translations of the comments in responses into English:
http://people.redhat.com/petersen/scim/ScimSurveyTranslation.csv
They can be read for example by oocalc. We hope you find them useful
and help the SCIM developers and community to further improve SCIM.
With seasonal greetings,
Jens Petersen on behalf of the I18n and L10n Teams
