No switch to Russian language on space swipe about hackerskeyboard

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Unfortunately I needed to disable internationalization, it was making the 
keyboard unusable for some people (see issue #1) due to conflicts with the 
built-in keyboard. I'll look into selectively reactivating the alternate 
Gingerbread layouts for the 4-row keyboard again, that shouldn't be difficult.

I've only made one layout for the 5-row keyboard so far, it may be a while 
before I'll be able to work on supporting alternatives for that.

Can you please try v1.12rc3 from 
http://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/downloads/list ?

I've re-activated the internationalized 4-row keyboards, so the Gingerbread 
layout should be supported in portrait mode now. Patches welcome for a 5-row 
Russian layout, see 
http://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/source/detail?r=cc239d69b202063c44b5fc9
2fc82e3665d8348a4 as an example :-)

See also the original Gingerbread "ru" layout:

lob;f=java/res/xml-ru/kbd_qwerty.xml

(It's also in this repository, but I couldn't find a link in the browse gui)

Have you had a chance to test it? And please let me know your name so that I

Can you try v1.12rc6? I've refactored the way that the keyboard definitions 
work to make it easier for future localizations, and to avoid duplicating the 
detailed keyboard layout for each language. See 
http://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/source/browse/java/res/values-ru/donott
ranslate-keymap.xml

The layout should mostly match the one you sent with a few small changes to 
stay closer to the Ubuntu layout on my computer.

yeah, it's good, thanks alot, works just fine on my ace and nook color. there's 
no russian language on xoom, though, but that's another story ;)

Thanks for testing! (And the keymap of course.) I'll release the new version on 
the Market today.

I noticed that the Xoom is missing Russian support in the system languages, but 
appears to have Russian fonts installed. I'll see if I can get it working, but 
that's a separate issue. (Filed as issue #16.)

Bulk update - changing "Fixed" to "Verified" for old bugs.

(Background: I'm changing the "Fixed" status to be considered open, the next 
steps in the lifecycle will be the closed states "FixInTest" and "Verified". 
This lets me mark issues as "Fixed" in commit messages without hiding them from 
the issue tracker.)
