Hello all,

there is the bidi package under golang.org/x/text/unicode/bidi which works fine but has no implemented API. 

I am currently implementing the API for my own project and I'd like to ask why the API is unimplemented, if somebody else is working on implementing the API and if not, should I send  a PR for an implementation?

The API looks fine (see for example https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/text/unicode/bidi) but all the functions raise a `panic("unimplemented")`.

The documentation for the package you're talking about says: "NOTE: UNDER CONSTRUCTION. This API may change in backwards incompatible ways and without notice."? Did you consider opening an issue as documented by https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html#design?

Hello Kurtis,

I am thinking about that, but wanted to ask on this list first.

Thanks for your reply.

Patrick
