The eMalta commission is actually sponsoring a project to create a large-scale 
dictionary of Maltese Computing Terminology (estimated to have around 
5,000-6,000 entries) which will benefit both future versions of Windows XP in 
Maltese, together with Linux Maltese.

I have been working on making the Maltalinks Search Engine support Maltese, 
based on my prior work on Google Malti - a new improved version should be 
launched next Friday.

Cheers,

Angelo Dalli
