There seems to be a persistent bug for the past several months: All the Hebrew and Arabic names in the geocaching maps are written backwards, i.e. the letters come in reverse order (see photo). In Arabic they have an additional bug that the letters are separated (they should be mostly connected, cursive-like) Hebrew name in map link to map

I see the same problem with Hebrew words (in maps within Israel). I'm quite sure that this bug is a left-to-right vs. right-to-left issue, which is why both Arabic and Hebrew behave the same. Arabic words have the additional bug that none of the letters connect, though most of them should (like in cursive English writing). This require a few variants of each letter, which is a feature that also seems to be broken in the current mapping deployment.

Count me in :-) I'm flying from across the pond for the megaevents, so I'll be pretty jet-lagged anyways. Thanks, jdevor
