Hi everyone,
           AbiWord provides the foundation for the write activity within sugar. 
Very recently we discovered critical bu in  our 2.6 series which manifested 
itself as inconsistent layout and printing.

Fixing this required substantial changes to our core graphics rendering 
classes. This might have affected AbiWord's (and hence Write's) ability to  
render bidirectional text and complex scripts.

Unfortunately our core abiword hackers are not proficient at either of these so 
I'm asking for help from people who know about bi-directional text and/or 
complex texts.

Please build our stable branch of the our code and report your tests to [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]
You can checkout the correct branch with this svn command.

svn co http://svn.abisource.com/abiword/branches/ABI-2-6-0-STABLE/ abiword-2.6

You'll need the development versions of a number of libraries to build abiword 
though if your ever managed to build write via sugar-jhbuild you'll have what 
you need already. More information is in abiword-2.6/docs/build.txt

Thank you very much. All help is appreciated.

Cheers

Martin
