Adil Allawi

Adil Allawi has worked for over 40 years in multilingual engineering. One of his early projects was working on one of the first implementations of right to left text in a personal computer on the Apple II. As such he feels personally responsible for all the bidi problems that have happened since. Adil has been a regular contributor to Unicode, consulting on the definition of Bidi isolates and auto direction and the encoding of Arabic Mathematical Symbols. He currently works at Apple where he has contributed to right-to-left support in multiple products including iWork, App Store, Music and Apple TV.
