Multilingual and Asian input methods

if you want to use SCIM ,you shall contact the scim maintainer MingHua
for it .You can find his work in the debian unstable the release of 
1.4.1 for  scim .
As for the simplified chinese users, we recommend that the FCITX will
be a better choise .
Also we have scim in our backports for our chinese user with the
latest release . deb http://debian.cn99.com/ubuntu-cn breezy main
