Firefox:1.5 Localization

Discuss with Chase/BSmedberg remaining issues for full l10n of trunk.

See those resources for some info on what's going on: Migrating FF L10n to trunk, Bug 279768 - make build system work with --enable-ui-locale

Directories to localise

If you're starting from scratch, these are the CVS directories you need to download and translate:

mozilla/browser/locales/en-US/
mozilla/dom/locales/en-US/
mozilla/extensions/reporter/locales/en-US/
mozilla/netwerk/locales/en-US/
mozilla/other-licenses/branding/firefox/locales/en-US 
mozilla/security/manager/locales/en-US/
mozilla/toolkit/locales/en-US/

We're days from Firefox 1.1a release, and we're ready to give you localized trunk builds.

As I'm writing it, first builds on l10n tinderbox that should be grean are bakeing. At the moment we have 9 builds that possibly will build. It's not too much. We have overall 13 builds in CVS. That's not too much.

So please, if you want to have 1.1 alpha in your language, start your work now.

To check changes in some timeframe you can use our bonsai tool. Just put this

mozilla/browser/locales/en-US/,mozilla/dom/locales/en-US/,mozilla/extensions/reporter/locales/en-US/,mozilla/netwerk/locales/en-US/,mozilla/security/manager/locales/en-US/,mozilla/toolkit/locales/en-US/

(probably will break) in Directory input, and type the timeframe to check what changed in that timeframe.

line corrected as noted by BSmedberg.

The very last change is in reporter tool - update your locales ASAP please.

We will not have time to help those who will wake up in a last day.

Greetings
Zbigniew Braniecki
