Greetings,
Its great to get 2.6.1 with its many bug fixes and some enhancements.
If you use unicode in Rev then you know that it is also an area that
could use some focused attention. I have listed below the outstanding
bugs from Bugzilla. We all know that these are not the sum of all bugs
concerning unicode. Some were reported multiple times and some are not
listed at all. Let's let Rev know what they need to do to get Unicode
really usable and robust so that we, and they, can reach markets
outside the US.
Here's my suggestion. Look for bugs. If you find a bug, run it by the
list first. This may suggest a temporary work around but it will also
look for confirmation and prevent duplication. If it is a bug, put it
in Bugzilla and list it under the Unicode and Localization component
and use 'Unicode' in the description. This makes it easier to compile a
list of outstanding issues.
Let's help Rev make unicode a usable feature and open up some new
markets.
Thanks
Ron
