Project summary
jQuery Input method editor is a collection of more than 150 input methods across several languages. It is the jQuery version of the input method tool, Narayam, which is used across several Wikimedia projects. Currently jQuery.IME is provided from the Wikimedia servers.

This project mainly aims at : Having the jQuery.IME installed as a plugin in the browser itself, users would be able to use it in any website.
 * porting jQuery.IME to Firefox and Chrome extensions
 * providing on demand loading of input methods for different languages rather than injecting all 150+ input methods to a web page.
 * providing a mechanism to update the extensions from the upstream project with minimal manual effort

Required deliverables

 * Implement on demand loading of input methods for different languages
 * Implement a mechanism to update the extensions from the upstream project with minimal manual effort
 * Include user preferences/options that would get persisted in the browser
 * Getting the extension reviewed and published
 * Full Documentation
