Ok, so we will continue with miniBidi (MIT licensed) and the current
patch will be tested and debugged after some work on miniBidi to make
it compliant with Explicit Directional marks.

I appologize for the late dissappearance, I will resume working on
miniBidi and the patch in 2 weeks, it'll probably take me about 1 week
to get everything finished. i hope this fits within your release
schedule and we wont have to wait for the next release.
