Yep, that sounds good to me. So, Yoshiki and I will work out what time
would be good for him to update the m17n code to the latest 3.7alpha.
Then, he can have a week or so to update it, and we won't include any
more updates in the stream until m17n is added.
Also, we'll want to figure out how much of the m17n .sar file we want
to include... for example, do we want to include the 3MB of japanese
fonts? As long as the support is there, perhaps it's okay to not
include the fonts themselves? Then there are other fonts, although
they're quite a bit smaller.
