Hi Sirs,
I have already began an effort to support RTL languages in the upcoming Qt4 by 
sending bug reports against it's latest snapshots. You can find the updated 
list bugs at
http://www.arabic-fedora.org/munzir/OpenBugs.html
I will be happy if people on this list can share their opinion, especially 
that I need your confirmation that these same issues apply also to other RTL 
languages besides Arabic.

I have some questions, for example, In Arabic if I set the format to be 
dd.MM.yyyy with the date 01/01/2000, I want this string to be displayed 
2000/01/01, do you agree? Do this also apply to persian and other RTL 
languages? Do this work now on GTK+?

Any other suggestions?
