I'd add to that,
* Need to get more involved into various specification consortium/bodies
and help motivate the addition of more Arabic expertise to 'em.
* As a means to fund-raise/promote, we should get Arabeyes T-shirts/stuff
available for sale via the likes of 'cafepress.com' among others.
I'd think the next proper thing to do is to put rough dates to the items
listed above as in "this is the date we should start looking at this item"
for each topic else we risk the chance of loosing track of it.
Thanks and Salam.
