The version online is still 0.21 (the script awaits youcef's return :-)
but I trust your description :-)  Munzir and Elzubeir I really think we
need to add "Intended Audience" as section 1.2.2 and move current 1.2.2
to 1.2.3 (in the template as well).  The audience for this document, as
stated earlier, is most certainly the users.

What I would like to push forth now is an mdk-SAIS to give to mandrake
developers and distro makers to tell them what it is they need to do to
fix all their Arabic-related problems.  To be more precise, we need to
give them the SAIS document once its completed (when ?) and a complementary
mdk_SAIS that mentions bugs/issues specific to mandrake.  MAPS could most
certainly be mentioned in the mdk_SAIS doc for mandrake to peruse to get
the user's perspective on things.

Thoughts ?

Salam.

 - Nadim
