Package: scim
Version: 1.4.9-7
Severity: normal

Whan you upload the newer scim package, please drop me from control file
and a uploader.  I do not wish to be listed there.

New upstreams have been available:
 * scim 1.4.10 has been released on Sunday 05 June     2011
 * scim 1.4.11 has been released on Sunday 07 August   2011
 * Today is                                24 November 2011
Prompt packaging is one sign of good package maintenance situation which
gives sense of security for security risk management.
(We all know we are volunteer so sometimes difficult to do though.)

I am expecting you to upload the newer scim package with the proper GTK3
(hopefull Qt4 too) immodule support to archive very soon. That is why I
am sending this as reminder.

Also, please drop README.Qt and make appropriate changes elsewhere.

As we discussed, here is confirmation of my position is that 
this package should be dropped from the archive:
REASON:
 * there is a very similar package in better shape, namely ibus.
 * scim upstream is not active enough for security support.
 * scim has not been updated its autotools tool chain and QT4 support
