Hi Holger,

I was sorry to not make it to Taiwan this year and see you and others again but hopefully another day.

Sorry, I should have put a separator in here that the above was the long description
and the bits below are the reason for the package, and details of maintainership.

Please mention somewhere that this is about Input Methods and not
Instand Messaging, best in the short description even.

Thanks, that's a good point. The description mostly came from old upstream and
scim-kmfl-imengine so I'll fix that in that package as well. New suggestion:

Description: Input method engine for multiple languages using KMFL for IBus

This package provides the KMFL (Keyboard Mapping for Linux) input method engine for
IBus. With this module, you can use keyboard layouts designed for Keyman for Windows 6.0
under the IBus platform.

That's far too late and non obvious.

I assume that comment is because of my missed separator above.

Thanks,
Daniel
