 I can read Chinese at the very least, and tell the differences between the
 Japanese and Korean characters. If you need any help or whatnot, just let
 me know. I'd be glad to explain to you what looks "correct" in those
 terms. But personally, I'd say just download all the fonts or character
 sets, and get support for those fonts. Pretty much just release a font
 package for Pidgin.
