Hi all.
I am working on a site that will be both in Arabic and English, but it seems that at setup time of ezPublish there is no choice to use Arabic language, it is not supported it seems.
My question is, is adding Arabic Language support something really hard for me to do? Another thing, when I tried English and Russian it told me that MySQL that I have does not support UNICODE. I have MySQL 3.23.56, I guess that I need to update to MySQL 4 to get Unicode support, or it can be enabled in my current version?

If Arabic Support in ezPublish doable, but need some non-harcore coding effort, I would love to do it, and have it added to the product it self.. BTW: Arabic is a RTL language, which means that the Arabic site will have a different Design/Template than the English one.

Thanks all

The Character support on that level is not really a eZ issue. No this is definity a DB issue, nothing really eZ related

Mysql support unicode from 4.1 ongoing. Enabling unicode for 3.x is not possible
