+'''Goals'''
+* '''Understand which new markets, languages, locales are our priority in the short and medium term. Gain wisdom from our Mozilla Japan colleagues'''.
+* Plan and process for evaluating the quality of our localized sites. User testing with l10n focus.
+* Plan, technical strategy and prototype for right-to-left (RTL) locales.
-We're currently (end of 2012) working on our localization plan.  If you're interested in being involved, [https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/webmaker join the webmaker mailing list] and introduce yourself!
+* Bugzilla whiteboard: '''[workweek-l10n]'''
-Until then, if you're interested in translating a Thimble project, check out this great howto: https://etherpad.mozilla.org/1rIhA6dmgP
+* '''Owners:''' Humph, Ali
+* '''Scrum tasks'''
+** Right-to-Left Planning -- '''(Tues AM)''' https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=965406
+** Prioritize Languages/Locales https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=965412
+** Webmaker and Japan https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=965416
+** Localization User Testing https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=965417
+** '''Community Managment of our Transifex community.''' Do we need to do anything?  How should we share the management of this beyond Ali?
-Questions?  [https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/webmaker Ask on the mailing list]!  We love questions! :)
+*  '''Post Work Week Priorities (individual tasks that could be done or put off):'''
+**  Make language setting per-user vs. per-site (user setting, per session, ???)
+**  UX for MakeAPI for localized searches
+**  Localized Emails, especially auto-generated
+**  Site banner/CTA to indicate lang/locale is not complete, and links to help translate, etc.
+**  Automation to auto-upload translation files to Transifex when something changes in en-US
+** Can we co-ordinate with MDN for details we share with them (e.g., HTML and CSS info in Goggles/Thimble)?
+**  Locale file info in healthcheck, to show how recently l10n translations where downloaded
+** Improve L10N Responsiveness of our Tools: we need to audit for things like widths/height.  We've fixed in webmaker.org, but missed a lot in our tools.
+** Localization of Teaching Kits and other Makes.  We don't have any automated/Transifex way of doing this now.
+** Need to educate people on using Tutorials vs. inline HTML comments in Thimble--this makes localization much easier.
+** Prompt users for locale on publish
+**  Display appropriate locales on Webmaker.org locale (ie pt-br content on webmaker.org/pt-br/)
