Pei

done last week:

  • Africa:
    • All contracted languages except for Lingala are complete with the Gaia localization. QA testing were done for most languages or would be complete on early next week.
    • Per request, Rubric delivered several l10n kit which to be made available with community and partners. Kit includes glossary, style guide and screenshots taken during FFOS testing.
    • South Africa Meetup: tried to loop in Marketing, Rep and Rubric on the meetup. The details started to come in but still it lacked solid and confirmed, attendees, events or dates.
    • Arabic: the community leads were completely tied up to UI development and localization. Almost no one is working on other components. Brought Heba, a new recruit on board to start localization work.
  • Asia: Had been chasing different leads that either provided no feedback or some info came without confirmation. Almost all attention had been focusing on Africa that the upcoming Asia launches in India and the Philippines have not generated much buzz. Most decision making people didn’t know all the details which made l10n moving forward very difficult.
  • Masterfirefoxos: Trouble shooting the site on multiple fronts. English had typos that were discovered after it went live. Communities almost unanimously ignored the project. 1.3 Spanish was needed yet there was no 1.3 English to localize from
  • Screenshots: Revised the 2.0 screenshot text to reflect the updated English template; Worked with Creative, Graphic artist and Rubric to curate images for South Africa market. Worked with Rubric and Friedel to finalize and agree upon the final text before screenshots were to be updated
  • Legal: 1). It was during an update request in Spanish, we discovered Spanish Marketplace legal documents were machine translated and without accent. As a result, an audit and cleanup was requested. 2). Requested legal translation in Arabic to support FFOS launch. 3). Heads up on Wolof and Filipino pending partner decisions

Pike

done last week:

  • elmo
    • ripping out unnecessary dependencies (bug 1121496), in prep for updating django, in prep for ... oh my buglist.
    • updating dependencies, finding more dependencies
    • and finding ancient mistakes. Rather spring-cleaning.
  • updated machine to mavericks, to install all the things
  • tried to set up an https proxy for transvision on paas, but can't get a public tube to work.
