Re: GNOME Membership Application of Tomas Frydrych

[Martin Sevior <msevior physics unimelb edu au>]

Hi everyone,
            I fully endorse Dom's comments. Tomas is an absolutely top-
notch developer with specific expertise in complex language processing
(like CJK, Arabic, Hebrew and Indic languages). He is currently working
through innards of pango with the aim of developing a pango-based
complex script processing algorithm for AbiWord.

He is one of the very people in the Free Software community who
understands this stuff. I'm certain he will be an enormous asset to
GNOME.
