I care about only for potato now. woody is yet beyond our time scope.

To make things clear, I would point that fb-support is not just for Japanese
version, but will be used for every language (utf-8 i18n version of b-f).
Adam wish to see that i18n version for potato, even as the point-release
after the initial release of potato.
But, if the separate kernel should be uploaded, then I work for it, of course.
