actualy I know a LOT and I mean a LOT of people who doesn't use linux cause of lack of docs/native reading-writing/mailing lists hebrew support. I know it doesn't matter to you, but hebrew is and still and if you ask me I hope it would keep being the language of our country.
there is something with GNU people and globalization which I can't really figure.. NEED people who actualy NEED it are not here, people who actualy NEED hebrew can't use linux.
