Most interesting :

C.L. Kao discussed XIM -- the X input method protocol -- which is the 
standard for CJK users to input their text. He said that programmers should 
always use fontset_load() instead of font_load() (or leave to the toolkit). 
GTK/GNOME has full support, he said, and QT2/KDE are catching up and LessTif 
is completely broken. "Regrettably, we recommend GTK currently," Kao said. 
Also, he said "[even] if you don't know anything about internationalization, 
it shouldn't be hard to code for CJK users."

Hasso
