GSwitchIt

The GSwitchIt project has reached its goals. The major components: XKB configuration tool, the applet - are integrated into the GNOME desktop v.2.6 (to the gnome-control-center and gnome-applets modules correspondingly). The keyboard support libxklavier library is included into the cross-desktop project FreeDesktop.ORG. The only piece of code which remains entirely SourceForge-based is gswitchit-plugins.

But my work on GNOME keyboard-related issues is not complete. There will be more GNOME releases. The libxklavier library needs a lot of improvements related to non-xkb environments and non-XFree86 servers. And probably more gswitchit plugins to come.

Users of the earlier GNOME versions, can still download GSwitchIt from the SourceForge download area. For GNOME 2.4, the version of GSwitchIt 2.3.3 is recommended (along with libxklavier 0.96).
