[maemo-developers] Developing virtual keyboard plugin for Maemo 5

[From: kokilakr kr]

Hello,

I took sample virtual keyboard plug-in source from following mail archive,

http://www.mail-archive.com/maemo-commits@maemo.org/msg09120.html

compiled and verified hildon onehand keyboard plug-in.

So I think there is latest virtual keyboard plug-in example sources which
are not committed to
gitorious.org<http://maemo.gitorious.org/fremantle-hildon-desktop/hildon-input-method-plugins-example>yet.

Thanks for all the replies.
