You say "it takes care of everything" as if all problems of Arabic typography have been solved. They are not! It would be interesting to find out what exactly your system does more than (a) Omega and (b) luatex.

And I don't really see what the issue is: are we talking for or against the bidirectional algorithm? or is it for or against your system's typesetting features?

In the first case, then I think the issue is clear: every current Arabic system must be bidi-compliant. In the second case, I would like to know more about your system, so please do not disappear.

I had tried my best to show another approach which I think is more advanced, it is bug free and takes care of everything and at the same time can be modeled for vertical texts as well.

If you think that the current bidirectional algorithm of LuaTeX is just fine, then this will be my last email.
