Hi, > 1. Hebrew in a popular general-purpose Linux distribution
I think that Hebrew support in Linux is quite good these days. There are some issues (ahhm, Thunderbird/Mozilla/Firefox hebrew text composition has some issues, and I wish the guys from IBM who wrote it will take care of it..), but both popular widgets (QT and GTK 2.x) has excellent hebrew support, and dare I say this - even better then what MS offers. > 3. Hebrew translation of applications I think this is a bit of problematic issue. Most of the more experiment Linux users (for example) tend to preffer using english based app and use the widget's thats the application is built in with - to write hebrew content inside. (I know many people who use this method with their KDE, for example), and since they don't look for Hebrew menus, they don't translate them. > 4. Hebrew translation of "web applications" (wiki, bug tracking, blog, etc.) There are few. Word press is available with hebrew, and frankly, I never had a request for Hebrew localized bugzilla, for example. Wiki is also available in hebrew if I'm not mistaken. > 5. Hebrew OCR Thats a tuff one. Most of the algoritms are protected with Patents (I think Iris has most of them if I'm not mistaken). I haven't tried it yet, but I don't know how much hard would it be to use Crossover Office with the IRIS software to do some OCR hebrew. > 7. Voice UI (Hebrew speech generation and speech recognition). Even Windows has the same issue. IBM was suppose to sell some solution, but I haven't heard about it for a long time now..
