Thanks in advance for your help here. This is a lightweight retention campaign to celebrate the upcoming Olympic Games in London. Project wiki is here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Websites/FFOlympics

The main vehicles driving this campaign are:

  • about:home
  • Facebook
  • mainstream newsletter

I'll need l10n support for about:home as a first priority, and then for Facebook.

about:home will have two snippet strings, being discussed here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765854 We'd like to have both localized please.

Facebook will have regular facebook update posts to the stream, which we'd love localization support for, and also a custom tab. On this custom tab we'd like to serve a gallery of themes (formerly personas) designed to capture country flags participating in the Games - with live preview / click to apply functionality. We'll have a brief snippet of text on this page, likely very similar to the about:home snippets. I'd like to have that localized if possible.

The key priority markets for retention are: USA India China Indonesia Germany Russia Japan France UK Italy Philippines Spain.

If we can cover these languages, that will be my priority, additional localization support would certainly be great.

Please let me know what makes sense from a timing and resources perspective. Given the global nature of the olympics, i'd love to have as many languages covered as possible.

The campaign is due to go live on July 25th. so we'll need localized copy done a week before then to update all the designs and make sure there is time for QA etc.

Happy to discuss over the phone for more details. It's the first time I'm filling out an l10n form so any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks
