Do we have any Hebrew, Arabic or Persian speakers around who could provide a
translation for testing????
Also, I want feeback from developers who would be localizing applications on
this (currently non-functioning)
layout<http://hta.haikuzone.net/eo/node/15331?svn=on>.
Does it make sense? Are there features I should add? Things I should move
around?
