Could anybody please tell me what are the next 
steps that will be taken and perhaps some rough 
schedule?

Particularly, for the "Über GOK"-project: will a 
wiki be set up and where? Concerning the creation 
of an "onscreen keyboard" community, I think that 
it might be a good idea to get also the tabletpc 
community on board: they might be especially 
interested in the composer part of gok and in its 
relation to GDM.

The section about the "Über GOK" lists onboard 
and jambu as startling points; maybe that gok and 
dasher should also be considered: gok for its 
switch input, scanning, ui grabbing, composer and 
word completion; dasher for its word prediction 
and its original input method (but only as an 
optional alternative to a more keyboard-like 
input).
