Hallo,
I just received an email (see below) that invites me to participate in
the elections.
There are several technical issues with it:
1. I already voted. It may be a good idea to send this only to people
who didn't.
2. The subject says "2009".
3. The email is sent in English and Hebrew. I don't know how did the
system find out that that is my preferred language, so it's a bit
weird, but in general i'm happy about this localization. There is
still a problem, however: since the text is bidirectional and this
email is sent in plain text, the Hebrew text is garbled and hardly
readable. One way to solve this is to send the email as HTML and to
define the Hebrew part as dir="rtl". This is relevant for all RTL
languages - Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, Pashto, Divehi and many others.
Thank you,
--
