I didn't realise the creator was listening... I'll have to be careful if
I throw around any criticisms on this mailing list in future :)

Just a curiosity: if Google's Maltese interface has been in existence
since 2001, how is it that the redirection to .com.mt was only recently
introduced? Was this in any way timed with the EU accession treaty
signing on April 16th (the day I first noticed the redirection), or was
it pure coincidence?

In any case, keep up the great work, and good luck with the Maltese
computing terminiology project... it's no mean task, surely. I'll
definitely have a closer look with a view to coming up with some useful
suggestions.

The inconsistencies in Google's Maltese interface were due to the fact
that Google did not support Unicode when I had created their initial
Maltese interface in 2001. Since then, apparently some Unicode support
has been added, and I will try to update the messages to be Unicode
compliant.

The user interface of Google and Maltalinks use similar messages, though
the latter is fully Unicode compliant. I am right now involved in
finalising a comprehensive dictionary of Maltese computing terminology
and any comments on the terms used in Google's or Maltalinks interface
would be helpful.

Regards,

Angelo Dalli
