Robert can correct me if I'm wrong but I *believe* he is referring to the following comment in BidiHelper:
* There are still details being worked out on the Atom WG list and it's * likely that at least one other impl (mozilla) will do something * slightly different. Given that he's stated publicly on the Atom WG list that he does not intend to implement (or even read) the bidi stuff I've proposed and given that he has mentioned on several occasions that he has already started to implement "something" and hasn't bothered to share *any* details of that impl other than a few vague statements on his personal weblog, I can hardly see how he can possibly claim that the above statement is inaccurate or dishonest (if that is indeed what he his saying). What he's implementing *will* likely be different than what I've implemented; and given that this is still a topic that is being actively discussed with no clear consensus on way or the other, it's perfectly acceptable for different implementations to approach the problem from different points of view. What would be more constructive, however, is if Robert would take a moment to share his thoughts on how the bidi stuff should work. I'd be more than willing to make sure that Abdera does it that way if it makes any sense. - James Garrett Rooney wrote: > On 10/18/06, Robert Sayre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> On 10/18/06, Paul Querna <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> > >> > Patches and helpful suggestions are welcome. >> >> Suggestion: tell project members not to check in intellectually >> dishonest comments and flames. > > What EXACTLY is it that you are complaining about?
