Joint Meeting Details

  • Time and location: Tuesday, 9:00 AM PST, Localization Vidyo room
  • irc.mozilla.org #l10n-drivers for back-channel

Joint Meeting Notes

  • Attendees:
  • X-channel fx l10n
    • Messaging to community about x-channel l10n:
      • We all used the same words to describe this, but with different interpretations of those words.
      • Need to unify the storyline and messaging.
      • Messaging needs to contain: Background info, all da winz, recommendations for community workflows (how do you localize every day, how do you localize once every 6 weeks, etc.), reference to documented decision, and timing.
    • Pike (and others) to document decision in Bugzilla under "Continuous localization" meta decision bug.
    • Two big things to communicate in 53: l20n and x-channel.
    • Need to bring l10n-drivers thread to dev-l10n with brief starter message based on documented decision in bugzilla.
  • Reschedule PM/Tech meetings so that people can attend both (if they want)?
    • Some of us would like to have the freedom to attend both.
    • Need to exchange input between individuals within each group.
      • Only way to really do this is rescheduling the calls.
    • Alternatives:
      • Better note taking and publishing.
      • Going to continue brainstorming possible alternatives.
  • All Hands team meetings spaces
  • Report from Fx Desktop meeting talking l20n
    • Next step is to share this info with Firefox Tech Architects group.
    • Meeting with Jet tomorrow.
    • Assuming all r+, we're looking at landing mid-November in mozilla-central in fx53.
