Hi Stefan,

great, thanks for continuing on the RTL support.

Sure, you are a contributor. Please mind the spelling of the company 
maintaining qooxdoo, it is 1&1.

As we already agreed upon that a while ago, lets proceed according to the 
corresponding task in bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4867#c15
I.e. that you would create a regular contribution in qooxdoo-contrib with those 
patches, so that it becomes generally available. By taking advantage of the 
qooxdoo-contrib infrastructure it can then be developed further by you and all 
interested parties. AFAIK we're still missing your SF account for setting you 
up as a committer to qooxdoo-contrib. Please let me know off-list, so that you 
can get started. 

Btw, since you seem to work against the qooxdoo SVN trunk, which is of course a 
moving target, a suggestion: try to retro-adjust your RTL contribution for the 
latest release qooxdoo 1.4, or if not, plan for targeting the upcoming qooxdoo 
1.5 release (due mid of July). A release of your contribution corresponding to 
a fixed qooxdoo release could help adopting your RTL solution for existing apps.

Let me know if you have questions. Looking forward to your RTL contribution,

Andreas
