Adding Serbian Keyboards

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, I've downloaded code from svn and added support for two additional
keyboards - Serbian Cyrillic and Serbian Latin. I would appreciate if you
could add those keyboards in some of your future releases. Attached to this
issue you can find changed and new Java and xml files that will add support
for above mentioned Serbian keyboards.

Regards, Nebojsa Veselinovic (veseli@gmail.com)

I'm also interested in this keyboard since my mother uses Serbian to SMS me :)
When do you expect to release new version?

Nebojsa: Actually, you can use latin with english keyboard (đžćčš) but 
what i'm
missing is dictionary. I think there on the net is serbian dictionary that could
probably be used with softkeyboard... The question is, how hard is to implement 
it?

It is not very hard to implement. I need a list of 
5000 most common words, and their frequency 
(frequency is optional)

is there a maximum?
i found a list with GNU licence but only problem is that contains ~350k words :(

I'm thinking about some another solution. To download whole serbian wikipedia 
and to
list most common words.
It could be done even in Bash

Will check it out...
btw, is there some rules? like length of the world? max/min size of dictionary 
(words)?

I found that crawling forums, chat rooms and news 
sites, gives a very good word list, with accurate 
frequency. 
The list should be about 5k words (most common).  
Too many words reduces the performance of the 
keyboard.

• Changed state: Accepted

It will not be a part of the next release.
It will be added once external packages will be support (release after that)

Hi Menny,
I just updated new version of softkeyboard (20100328-x-dvtek (release 17)), so i
guess in next version there will be Serbian?
