Re: Moving japanese category to localised

[Masao Uebayashi <uebayasi@soum.co.jp>]

I, as I said in tech-pkg, agree with Alistair that "japanese" category
should be deprecated.  After the discussion, I considered a bit
different way of japanese category reorganization.  My idea is to
classify "japanese" packages into other categories subject to the rule
that "classified subject to its use" which is used for all other
packages.

My classification looks like:

	Package		New category
	------------------------------------------
	a2ps		textproc
	ack		textproc
	canna-lib	inputmethod
	canna-server	inputmethod
	canuum		imputmethod
	chasen		textproc
	chasen-base	textproc
	freewnn-lib	inputmethod
	freewnn-server	inputmethod
	gawk		lang
	grep		textproc or misc
	groff		textproc
	ipadic		textproc or dict
	jhd		misc
	kakasi		textproc
	kbanner		textproc
	kinput2		inputmethod
	less		misc
	man		misc
	mh		mail
	micq		chat
	mknmz-wwwoffle	www
	namazu1		textproc
	namazu2		textproc
	nkf		textproc
	p5-Jcode	textproc
	p5-Text-ChaSen	textproc
	p5-Text-Kakasi	textproc
	p5-jcode	textproc
	p5-nkf		textproc
	qkc		textproc
	sed		lang
	sj3-lib		inputmethod
	sj3-server	inputmethod
	skkfep		inputmethod
	skkinput	inputmethod
	skkserv		inputmethod
	texfamily	print
	texfamily-share	print
	vflib		print
	vflib-lib	print
	vflib-utils	print
	vfxdvik		print
	xjdic		dict
	xjman		dict or doc

It appeared to me that the only categories to be newly created are
"inputmethod" and "dict".  "inputmethod" is for packages to input
Japanese, and "dict" for data of Japanese characters and words used in
many situations by "inputmethod" and "textproc" packages.

These two are very similar to the opinion someone (rxg?) argued in the
previous discussion, and also apparently correspond to "localised"
category you mentioned.
