state (and difficulty) of support for bidirectional languages.
Hebrew is not the only RTL language, nor is it the most common. If
Openmoko intends to be open in the sense that it is available to
everyone, then I would expect that support for LTR, RTL, TTB, and
other methods of writing should be a core part of the UI, not tacked
on later. I should probably bring this up on the Openmoko list, but I
am not subscribed and there are those who can better argue the point
than me.

Hi Dotan,
Shachar raised this point on the OM list, and it was discussed at length. I
think the general feeling was that this is a very valid desire, and is
somewhere on the "todo" list prioritized in some way, although community
assistance would help it move forward.
