Hebrew editing has a lot of problems, what with reversing and pushing the
text, read more at www.elmar.co.il if you want. I don't know if there is
any one individual with enough time and resources to take on this project
and afford to keep it GPLed. I don't know who is behind this project, but
I think you owe them an appology for your propostrous acqusations of
AntiSemitism.
Furthermore, I have no idea who you are, Mr.
I-use-my-root-account-for-mail, but "Linux people in Israel" (me included)
are now also insulted. you want to know us? sugest some projects, or even
help out with them? fine, please subscribe to our mailing list and post
interesting suggestions, instead of thrashing about in il-board about
things and people you obviously don't know much about.
