Contact old Songbird localizers #10

Open AntoineTurmel opened 12 years ago

AntoineTurmel commented 12 years ago

Once the langpack is ready to translate on Babelzilla, we should contact people who helped localizing Songbird to keep work on Nightingale translation.

Some are mentions here : https://github.com/nightingale-media-player/nightingale-hacking/blob/sb-trunk-oldxul/app/content/html/aboutCredits.xhtml

Else you can find all names here in translators.html : https://github.com/nightingale-media-player/songbird-l10n

We can team up this work with Mozilla communities as this was done once before. Most of french localizers are Mozilla contributors for example.

Ok some people express interest to help on Nightingale translation on forums and Twitter. They would need at least a Babelzilla account, and if they want to be more involved, a GitHub account.

AntoineTurmel commented 12 years ago

It seems that "mitchmcalister" (product director of Songbird) is taking care of several locales now but there are still contributors working on their own locale, translating some useless stuff for closed-source components...

AntoineTurmel commented 11 years ago

Ok time to contact people now, fr and de teams are up, rest we have to contact formers translators.

AntoineTurmel commented 10 years ago

Ok first part of collecting mails quite done :) I have to ask missing mails to Goofy...

AntoineTurmel commented 10 years ago

While I'm waiting for latest e-mail address, here is a draft of the e-mail I want to send: https://nightingale.etherpad.mozilla.org/localizers-mail

@freaktechnik @rsjtdrjgfuzkfg @ilikenwf Let me know what you think.

I'm missing mails for: ગુજરાતી (Gujarati) Монгол (Mongolian) मराठी (Marathi) සිංහල (Sinhala)

Should I contact matching people from Mozilla L10n teams ? (maybe It's up for a different e-mail message) https://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n:Teams

rsjtdrjgfuzkfg commented 10 years ago

@GeekShadow: I did some changes (and saw freaktechik doing some as well), however I have some minor notes not fitting into etherpad:

CC - I'd put the translators into BCC, or write individual eMails and properly put them in the to-field.

based on Mozilla - I personally would prefer powered by Mozilla (as in credits) or based on XULrunner.

AntoineTurmel commented 10 years ago

Yeah by CC I meant BCC sorry ^^ (not gonna leak +100 e-mails address), individual emails seems betters though. And yeah replaced "based on Mozilla". For missing mails I think I'll do another mail message. Also @rsjtdrjgfuzkfg now on GitHub I have changed to @AntoineTurmel ;)

AntoineTurmel commented 10 years ago

So if it's ok, I gonna send this message to all mails address I have.

AntoineTurmel commented 10 years ago

Done last sunday. Get 5 Mail delivery failed, I have to look for missed mails address.
