--- Comment #19 from Dotan Cohen winehq-bugs@dotancohen.com 2008-09-03 12:55:51 --- Thanks for the encouragement, Dan, you know that we appreciate you.
Dan is right, BiDi cannot be developed without developers who speak either Hebrew or Arabic. So we need to help and encourage them to contribute.
Coincidentally, just a few hours before coming across this bug I contacted Shahar with a donation (I donate regularly to FOSS coders and projects). I suggest that anyone who needs BiDi support to either code or to contribute to those who can.
