This release features a whole code rewritting, so no more Perl / PerlQt3, long live the C++/Qt4 couple ! This version have been successfully tested with various Qt version from 4.4.0 to 4.5.0. 
Almost all features from the previous version have been recoded and are available in this test release. The remarkable exception is the plug-in system (still unavailable, will be included in the beta version). 
There is limitations to this release : 
- as said previously : no plug-in stystem 
- only few cities/postal codes and only French 
- only one federation (and a French one). 
 
I am now waiting for reports, that can be submited on Sourceforge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/assuma/), on the Sourceforge's mailing list (see previous link) or here. 

This release can be downloaded at Sourceforge's download page.
 
Please enjoy !

PKanaEditor - The "P" Kana Editor v0.2 released

Hi,
After some weeks of kind of hard work, here is the 0.2 version of the "P" Kana Editor.
It's now fully rewrote in C++/Qt 4.x and that's one of the smallest changes I made !
I also add a configuration window and the editor now features an intuitive "kana" completion and an help system on completion's proposal !
Moreover PKanaEditor is now multiplateform and can be used on Linux based system but also on windows systems (only XP tested) and Mac OS X (hum... it should be...) and most of the UNIX based system (*BSD, etc.).
You can download the sources from Qt-apps.org or from here. The archive is also attached to this post.

The one thing I couldn't do for this release is to find a meaning to the "P" ;-)

I hope you will enjoy it !
