It=E2=80=99s a popular Dvorak-like French-optimized keyboard la= yout. Some=20 reasons to include it: =E2=80=93 B=C3=A9po layout is popular, see the number of people registe= red on our forum:=20 http://forum.bepo.fr/userlist.php (if we don=E2=80=99t count people wit= h 0 messages=20 posted, 33 + 50 =C3=97 8 =3D 433), or on Linuxfr.org:=20 https://linuxfr.org/sondages/la-disposition-b%C3%A9po%E2%80%A6 (203 peo= ple=20 claims that they use B=C3=A9po, 114 wants to use it and 443 says =E2=80= =9Cmaybe one day=E2=80=9D).=20 Some of this people created Ergodis, an association to promote B=C3=A9p= o (but not=20 only). =E2=80=93 physical B=C3=A9po keyboards. How to install a distro if we c= an=E2=80=99t use our=20 keyboard? (http://typematrix.com/bepo.php and http://www.ceciaa.com/cla= vier-ergoneos-fort-contraste-disposition-bepo-c2391-7.php for example).= =E2=80=93 B=C3=A9po isn=E2=80=99t available on some distributions, so i= t=E2=80=99s not easy to install it,=20 especially for =E2=80=9Cnoobs=E2=80=9D. B=C3=A9po directly in kbd means= no maintenance problems for=20 distributions and unified and simple solution to the problem. =E2=80=93 B=C3=A9po layout won=E2=80=99t evolve anymore (instead, we wa= nt to do a new (perfect?)=20 keyboard layout for the (far?) future). It means no maintenance burden = for=20 you. Also, it=E2=80=99s less than 85 KiB (licences included) So, what do you think about this idea?
