Hi,
     The upcoming release of libmeegoimframework (0.19.41-1) will have
some interface changes which are related to orientation change.

What and why
------------------------
    Basically, this change only affects the developer who are developing
input method plugins base on libmeegoimframework.

    The detail of changes:
  - MAbstractInputMethod was changed. The method handleAppOrientationChange() was renamed as
handleAppOrientationChanged(), which means target application already finish changing
orientation. And there was a new method handleAppOrientationAboutToChange() says target
application is about to change orientation.



What will break
--------------------------
The input method plugin which bases on libmeegoimframework will break.
To resolve it. The plugins must update their codes according the
interfaces changes.

How to prepare
--------------

* If you are developer for a input method plugin which bases on
libmeegoimframework,
you can pull the latest libmeegoimframework from gitorious:
meego.gitorious.org/meegotouch/meegotouch-inputmethodframework
The interfaces changes are already in the master.
And update your plugin implementation base on it.

When it will happen
-------------------

libmeegoimframework (0.19.41-1) will be tagged before in this week.

Any question please contact me as soon as possible.
