Yes, although this seems to me to be a Windows font issue... but the point was interesting and at this occasion I discovered a bug in my ZIM build script :) The discussion show me also the need of an automatic transliteration tool (latin-X) in Kiwix for search imput fields (Santosh have done one in JS in the web pages itself for Malayalam alphabet). > I hope that Emmanuel and Asaf want to tell us more here about their > experience of Wikimania 2010. Important points for me: * Meeting "in the real world" few people and pushing our common projects. Hope to have a few annoucements to do until the end of the year. * Get feedbacks of users about Kiwix. * Next release wave in English with WP1 0.701 and 0.8 * New challenges with pushing plan for Wikitrust and starting work with new WP1 assessment&selection tool * Launching Kiwix port for OLPC Cheers Emmanuel _______________________________________________ dev-l mailing list [email protected] https://intern.openzim.org/mailman/listinfo/dev-l
