Greetings, now that emacs-bidi has been around for over 6-months in its current very functional state, what can be said about its future and its possible inclusion into emacs' CVS tree ? http://www.m17n.org/emacs-bidi I was recently chatting on IRC (irc.freenode.net - #emacs) about this subject and to my surprise not many people knew of emacs-bidi's existence let alone of whats to become of it and its inclusion. To make a long story short and to present forward action, 'johnw' on IRC made the following seemingly reasonable suggestions, 1. Post a reference on gnu.emacs.sources 2.

Are the suggestions noted above sufficient to lead us down that road ? What else can/needs to be done ? PS: please CC all those included. Regards, - Nadim(Continue reading)
