Update: Ukrainian and manymany other keyboards was added officially 8-)
So here I am to get translators/localizators or their not-well-informed-about-geopolitics management.
Don't know if that was not in plans to deliver N900 to Ukraine, but here it is, on sale almost in every internet shop.
I don't really care about interface language. I understand that it was decided that most buyers will understand russian and I'm pretty comfortable with english. However, one friend of mine refused to buy N900 without Ukrainian interface. But that's not my problem.
I just want input language. Without that I simply cannot communicate. Yes, I know that Ukrainian (and Belorussian) characters are on Fn+Sym screen keyboard in Russian. But just try to remap english "i,j" for example to that keyboard and try to write a couple of messages. "Uncomfortable" is too respectable word for that feelings.

After a week or two I found keyboards in
Code:
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/nokia_vndr/rx-51
and remapped Russian to Ukrainian.
Yes, it's working. But if I change code from "ru" to "uk" (or "ua") it stops working and is still named "Russian" in notifications after Ctrl+Space.

P.S. I don't mind to make interface translation myself for community. Just show me how and add Ukrainian keyboard to 1.3.
