  1. bug 501794: fennec l10n nightly repacks.
    • BLOCKED on bug 520765 win32 dekstop builds failing.
    • Mac localized builds is pretty much one afternoon of work
  2. bug 519684: multi-locale builds for fennec on maemo for nightlies and release.
    • I got the factory to run compare-locales and create the chrome files from within scratchbox
      • Figuring out how to handle in buildbot multiple locales (equivalent to multiple steps) - Axel suggested to have a list of locales passed by the scheduler; this could probably work but not sure 100%
      • Approach 2 - make target that will pull locales indicated by maemo-locales, run compare-locales and add the chrome for each locale

Other questions:

  • in the previous betas we took a nightly build and we renamed it to make it the release. If we do that for a multi-locale nightly that will have l10n-merged locales and won't be generated of an approved listed of locales for a release. For beta 5 might be fine from convos with Axel but we don't want that for RCs or the final, right? This will require work on en-US factories as well (which we currently don't have for Fennec
    • Axel says that we should not be blocked on l10n-changesets for Beta5
    • He also says that we should aim to get it as close as what we want for the long run
  • are we going to use tags or are we always going to be pulling from "default". We should be using tags.
    • this gets answered by the answers of Axel in previous bullet point
  • if we are going to be generating individual locales as well as the multi-locale builds; we need to make a naming separation from en-US to multi. I suggest uploading en-US before getting into creating the multi locale build
