In PuTTY it was a matter of policy == a matter of personal liking. A fork of
PuTTY with bidi support is almost as good (as bad) as a replacement of existing
BiDi implementation. Why don't Arabeyes people feel they are respectable enough
to have a policy not changed whenever someone outside 'has a policy'?

Due to policy issues or technically?

If reasons are due to 'policy' issues, then personal preferences have
everything to do with it. It was a personal preference to join Arabeyes, not a
business venture.
