@pascalchevrel message on dev-l10n-web:
Hi guys,
Australis, the new UI for Firefox, will be released into Firefox 29 which is planned to be on April 29.
As you know, this is the biggest UI change since Firefox 4 and we intend to promote it significantly.
That means that there will be several new pages on www.mozilla.org about it and that we will launch a promotionnal site, called Glow 2014 to help with the launch.
A lot of this is still a work in progress and basically, we are working in parallel with the various webdev teams implementing the sites. The strings we have though, are final.
There is stuff not ready yet as I expect to see a promo on mozilla.org home page for example, and an update of our firefox/new download page. Those updates will land in your svn repos as soon as they are done, but in the meantime I think that we already have +90% of the strings ready.
Here is an inventory of what needs localization today:
1/ A set of 4 pages describing Australis:
https://www-demo4.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/desktop/ https://www-demo4.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/desktop/trust/ https://www-demo4.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/desktop/fast/ https://www-demo4.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/desktop/customize/
There is a total of 97 strings for these pages.
2/ The new firefox sync page: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/sync/
This is 14 strings and this page will be promoted on all of our Australis page in the context of the Firefox Account service. We need this one for the release but we can already push the translation today (we did it for English last week). That will also allow us to redirect old sync content to this new page.
3/ A set of firstrun/whatsnew in-product pages for the first launch: https://www-demo3.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/29.0/firstrun/ https://www-demo3.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/29.0/whatsnew/
The firstrun page is displayed to a new user installing Firefox, the Whatsnew page is displayed to an existing user upgrading Firefox.
The two pages share the strings (firefox/australis/firefox_tour.lang), there is a total of 66 strings.
Several things to know about this page:
about:configin Firefox in order to enable UITour on demo3.type: string name: browser.uitour.whitelist.add.testing value: www-demo3.allizom.org
Before translating, I really encourage you to visit the firstrun/whatsnew pages to familiarize yourself with the UI :)
4/ The glow website
In the past, we had created a campaign to count all the Firefox downloads with a global map showing lights where people were downloading Firefox.
This year, we are going to do something similar for Australis except that we will not count dialogs but opinions on what matters most for you as a firefox user with a set of options (Privacy, learning, Opportunity...). Then through the campaign, we will be able to show what values are more important per region or country.
The website is heavily in the works, so as to allow localization of it while we are actually creating it, we froze all the strings and put them in a separate template for extraction and we put that on Verbatim:
https://localize.mozilla.org/projects/glow2014/
(and of course for those that prefer using offline tools such as OmegaT, PoEdit or others, the .po is editable at: https://svn.mozilla.org/projects/l10n-misc/trunk/glow2014/locale/)
5/ The about:home snippets
We have 27 snippets promoting the launch, Flod already talked to you about them in this list so I won't tell more, but I guess that some of the snippets referring the launch may now make more sense now that you know what all this is about :)
For everything design/font related and impacting l10n, we will probably start working on that next week, to give the webdevs the time to finalize all the content. So if you notice something funky with your language, please wait like the end of the week to report it so as to make sure that you are not just seeing a side effect of the works in progress :)
If you have any question, don't hesitate to ping me (pascalc), or francesco (flod) or Théo (tchevalier) on IRC. Flod and myself are in the European timezone, Théo is in the California timezone.
Cheers!
Pascal
