Some good information about blogging in RTL languages

I read this blog post today http://betabloggerfordummies.blogspot.com/2008/01/blog-in-arabic-hebrew-and-persian.html
His post is pretty good. It's a little hard to find the content through all of the other stuff floating around his busy page

Blogger has added some pretty good functionality, but I was hoping for some insight from his review, and I didn't get it.

Important questions remain: how do I get my feed to look right in RTL. Are the text-direction changes automatic? What happens if I already spent hours hacking my template to make it RTL compatible?
I would like to see answers to questions like these, or at least see that the poster understands that these are pertinent issues.
I'm really glad that he brought this to my attention though.

With all of the excitement in the mortgage industry, we've been having trouble keeping up over here.

I'm going to start publishing random quaggles here.

 

I'm not sure where it's going, but I might need to fill the space with fodder for other reasons.
