Hi all,
feedback is welcome for this message.

Thanks to Uwe and Bennet I have compiled this list of bugs. Is there any issue
missing here? Which bugs do you expect to tackle during the release
candidates stage?
I'm still having some stability issues with Hebrew. I pretty sure
they're mostly encoding-related, because they only appear with certain
encoding options. I think, but am not sure, that solving bug 1820 (which
is not trivial) will solve some of the issues. Anyone up to the challenge?
http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1820 (Footnotes starting in
English of a Hebrew paragraph come out as Hebrew gibberish)
Also, there are a few regressions with regard to Bidi which are not on
the list:
http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3550 (Selection in mixed RTL-LTR
paragraphs is broken)
http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3551 (Only issue (3) is a
regression, (1) and (2) are not; but they are solved by the patches I
submitted tonight, assuming they are accepted)
If possible, could the patch I submitted here
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/80783/focus=81153 (and
attached, after adjusting to renaming changes) be checked and committed?
It's only the beginning of a solution for the problems I raised in that
thread, but it's standalone, so there's no reason why it should not go
in even though the whole issue isn't resolved yet.
I'll try over the weekend to make a more organized summary of the
situation with regard to Hebrew/Bidi.
Thanks!
Dov
