I was interested, as a former user, so just looked them up. Sourceforge
says latest update was last October, but this is what the project's web
site looks like now:

  http://www.scim-im.org/

That strikes me as not a good sign :=(

Word of caution to ibus users: I had ibus suddenly stop working on my
work machine when I upgraded from 1.4.x to 1.5 (and cannot downgrade
because Gentoo Portage main tree has purged the older versions, and I'm
too lazy to look for an overlay that has them, grrr).

I'd like to try mozc, but... <sigh>.... don't feel like having to mess
around after things get screwed up :=(
