Matt,
RU on the jtlug list?  There is a lot of talk about getting documentation
for various Japanese projects translated into English.

For people that don't know, Rex published an article on http://slashdot.org
that generated quite a bit of interest in MagicPoint.  The first comments
in the forum were bewilderment at the Japanese.  RU in communication
with Kakugawa-san?

There is getting to be so much good Japanese free software out there.
We should really try to make it more accessible for non-Japanese. 

ahh, in our copious free time.  ;-)

Regards,
Craig
