Jeff,
That is encouraging, however our concern is that the character rendering
is not supported.
Ian,
What do you mean by this statement?
What have you tried? ie: what does you mapfile look like, what font are
you using, etc?
For this to work you need the following:
1. a mapserver build with fribidi-0.19.2
2. a truetype fone file that supports all the glyphs that you need
3. your mapfile and data configured correctly such that the text in the
data is appropriately for the ENCODING and that that then matches the ttf.

Hello list,
We are seeing some issues displaying Hindi and Thai text, from a quick
search it looks like this may be related to there not being support
for Indic scripts.
Can anyone confirm if these are supported? And if they are not are
there any workarounds?
Hello Ian,
I can for sure confirm that Thai text is supported, as it was one of the
languages tested during the initial implementation of the source code
(see the notes at the bottom of
http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/labelencoding.html).
There's always a chance that things have changed with MapServer 6.0, but
if you provide a small data sample, font, and simple one layer mapfile I
am sure others on this email list can test and provide feedback for you.
