Status

  • Stage: Development
  • Are there B2G dependencies?
  • What functionality do we need to support in v1 (BusReq.)?
  • What languages do we need to support in v1 (BusReq.)?
    • Fabien: We are building in support for all the language possibilities, but its up to the individual carrier to implement the languages and adjust the UI to fit. (March 22)
  • How is support implemented? eg: l10n, l20n?
  • Where is support manifested in UX? eg: keyboard, Settings, automatic translation, etc?

Overview

Support for multiple language display and input.
design considerations:

  • UTF-8/Unicode encoding support throughout B2G
  • String and phrases that could appear to the users including status bars, dialogue boxes, button text, alerts
  • Localized imagery and any images containing text
  • Layout - support for RTL languages eg. arabic
  • Date, currency, numeric formats
  • Fonts packages for each language
  • Flexible UI, partners should not need to adjust UI (much) if swapping fonts
