RTL Global Task Force
(this is still a draft)
 
= RTL Global Task Force =
 
It has become obvious to the various Mozilla RTL communities that the creation of an RTL task force is needed in order to drive the RTL effort onwards and across products.
 
During [https://blog.mozilla.org/l10n/2015/10/14/mozilla-rtl-l10n-hackathon/ the recent l10n RTL Hackathon], participants (mostly developers) from Arabic, Persian and Urdu teams have agreed that the RTL task force needs to be first and foremost a global task force – and that they can then address the possible RTL differences from one language to another as they come.
 
We are still looking for participants from other RTL languages to join us, so please feel free to spread the word.
 
This initiative will be mostly developer focused at first - but feel free to join if you think you can also bring your expertise as a tester.
 
== Goals ==
 
A few initial goals have been defined for the task force:
 
* Planning and working on creating a seamless RTL experience across Mozilla products
* Identifying and studying possible differences in RTL behavior across languages
* Finding and fixing bugs in Firefox OS current master- Meta bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1179459
* Fixing and fixing bugs in Fennec: RTL tracker bug for RTL Fennec for Android — https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=702845
 
Priority right now is to help find and fix bugs for Firefox OS 2.5 (currently master).
