Sometimes their reviweing takes months or years or forever, even when it's very trivial and known to work correctly. <p> Maybe they are also tired of tight release schedules and keeping up employer's/customer's requirements.

They are incompatible with each other, as well as with iso-8859-N or other 8-bit encodings. <li>The number of "alphabets" are relatively big. Even no native Chinese person knows the exact number. For Korean, there are 19+21+27 alphabets but they can be "combined" into 19*21*(27+1) glyphs. <li>And, some American/European hackers' ASSUMPTION. They assumes iso-8859-1 encoding. They assumes linebreaks can occur between any bytes. In some cases CJK support brings inefficiency. </ul> Tue, 19 Sep 2000 12:57:17 GMT http://www.advogato.org/person/cwryu/diary.html?start=0 http://www.advogato.org/person/cwryu/diary.html?start=0 I have joined. <p> Nothing to keep much. Hm.. It's not easy to keep a diary entry in English.
