That's not the issue here. The issue here is that such updates _could_ be provided without requiring users to install a newer version of the OS. IOW, the assertion that one cannot expect an OS shipped in 2001 to support scripts that didn't exist at that time is simply false. There's no technical problem here, only a managerial decision. > Also, while you would evidently appreciate seeing an optional update for > Uniscribe show up in Windows Update, the vast majority of users would only be > confused by that. How can a newer and better text shaping engine possibly confuse users?
