A better question would be: Why do Israeli users have to use abiword, they
certainly don't deserve it!
Its pretty broken!

There are 2 problems in hebrew word processing:

1) lack of decent free (as in free speech) word processors
2) lack of hebrew support.

Therefore no need to reinvent the wheel - it wasn't invented yet!

Thats a good idea. 

I can also comment on the nice hobby of criticizing any new project popping
up. What's the itch to stomp down efforts? you don't have to work on the
project - but there's no point in telling someone - your project is useless.
Usually they gave some thought to the subject before going ahead and asking
for help.

Feel free to throw lightweight coding at me. I'm too tired for design,
discussions and stuff.
If you need some library to do something - throw the API at me and I'll code
it.

Thanks,
