Behdad, where can I find those discussions or "consensus" that
was noted on the Unicode bidi list (URL, archives, etc) ? The
only Unicode mailing-lists I found were closed and required, oddly
enough, a login (why ?). A number of us here are very interested
in the topic and would like to be a bit more involved in it.
Regards & Salam.
