L10n

• The L10n-drivers and Firefox Home team are finalizing a plan to localize the application. An announcement to the l10n newsgroup on instructions is forthcoming, hoping to post this week.
• Firefox 4 beta 2 will ship with 23 locales, some taking advantage of our "l10n-merge" technology.
• Firefox 4 beta web l10n work has been led by Pascal C. (Excellent work by Pascal) This tracking bug gives a good summary of the status of pages.
• KaiRo (Robert Kaiser) posted an explanation about the goals of the l20n project in the dev.platform newsgroup. Thanks, KaiRo!
• Congrats to the Malayalam localization for moving out of beta and into "official" status
  • Oriya, es-CL, and es-MX will be next to de-beta
  • L10n-drivers have a quarterly goal to reduce the number of locales in beta
• Several new locales are expected for Firefox 4 as the l10n-drivers team starts afresh with outreach to long-standing contributors trying to make it into an official release.
  • Because of that, the team is refining the process by articulating more clearly what it takes to enter an official release, what is expected from both the l10n-drivers and the community proposing the new localization, and what are the consequences if all to-do items are not completed.
