Elmo is the codename for the new version of the Mozilla localization portal.

What is Elmo?

Elmo is l.m.o, which is l10n.mozilla.org.

Elmo is an infrastructure of web apps that are intended to help the l10n community. Presently, our tools, docs, sites, wikipages, etc., all live in a fairly disorganized, disparate world that we often ask localizers to navigate to get stuff done.

To solve that problem, we spent a quarter with Chris Howse doing an information architecture study of all those disparate pieces of information. That has come together nicely now in a plan that we have to build an l10n portal that links all of that stuff in one site.

Elmo is that plan.
