I also want to say thank you for using uim!
As a Japanese, I want Japanese to get better support
by international distributions.
So uim's target is to get easy support of using and
switching input methods of Japanese and other all
langueges as well without dirty hacks.
#Requirement of setting up servers to input Japanese is allowable.

No, not yet. However, to get same level support of simlified Chinese
is easy. But we have to implement more functionality like candidate
window, learning the order of candidates, so on.

Not yet, you may look at /usr/share/uim/PY.scm, but there is 
no document yet.

Currently, uim is just a preliminary level. I hope you to be patient
with development.

Thanks,
