Hi there!
I'm looking for a KDE language developers' mailing list or something so I can 
get help with my attempt at making some contributions. I'm trying to make some 
keyboard layouts with IPA symbols on the Alt+Gr key, so that linguists can use 
them without changing keyboard layouts. I've tried following someone's 
tutorial on how to modify a KDE keyboard layout (using Svorak as an example, 
because that's the keyboard layout I use), and I just can't get my changes to 
have any effect on KDE! I was wondering if there's a mailing list I can join, 
or anyone I can chat with who might help me, because I want to make these 
changes for a whole bunch of keyboard layouts so that they can be available to 
everyone, not just get it working on my computer and forget about it. 

Cheers!
Aston
PS I've tried all the forums and have had a few Emails back and forth with the 
guy who wrote the tutorial I was following, I haven't found anyone yet who can 
figure it out. It still could be something simple that I'm missing but I've 
been promising myself not to let it stagnate forever :).

PPS I can see someone's actually replied to my forum post there, so I may have 
spoken too soon, but it would still be cool to get in contact with people 
about integration, if I do get the layouts working and there are other people 
who think it's a good idea :).
