* Notes from what the competition supports:
* Close the [https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/spreadsheets/d/12_V7bLexbL5bvadTtBPBIFi_GYjsE67CH7YURF2826w/edit?usp=sharing competitive gap between us, Chrome, and Opera].
** Opera Mobile supports 40 languages
* Implement RTL support for at least one of the world's most widely spoken languages (Arabic).
** Chrome Mobile supports 31 (as of Apr 2012) and seemingly 38 (trying to find an official source of truth)
* Improve testability of l10n by automating localized screenshots of new features shipping in Fennec for each release and making them available to localizers, regardless of device availability.
** Google Play store supports 45 localizations
* Increase discoverability of Fennec localizations.
** Google's default Android localization is into 68 languages (added support for Basque, Bengali, Burmese, Chinese (Hong Kong), Galician, Icelandic, Kannada, Kyrgyz, Macedonian, Malayalam, Marathi, Nepali, Sinhala, Tamil and Telugu in 5.0 Lollipop).
* Facilitate A/B testing of localized features.
** OEMs add languages to Android's 52 delivered languages (e.g., Samsung devices have up to 83).
* Help to reduce the memory overhead of delivering localizations.
 
* Implementing l20n into Fennec for Android (ICU support)
== Specifications ==
* Pipeline for translating app store and input comments.
* Multi-locale build to include all new locales
* (RTL languages requires support from the Android UI for the likes of Arabic)
