Introduction

This page is son of L10n:Teams:hy-AM and will keep track of the findings I do about the localization of Firefox in Armenian. It will also let new people to know what they have to read to get an idea on what we have traveled so far in the project.

This page at one point might have to be moved to a proper team's site. Contact Armen

The Armenian localization project will be moved most probably to MozDev.org instead of to SourceForge.

New to the Project

Please create in this site a user account, create your own user page and link yourself in the team's page (L10n:Teams:hy-AM)
Create an account in bugzilla, go to your preferences and under Email Settings, add this user armenian.hy-AM@localization.bugs to be watched and you will receive notifications about the bugs related to Armenian localization (I THINK - How does this really work?)
Keep on reading this page and join the discussion group that we will soon be creating

Software and source code used

For any of the following contact us to get them

  • Mozilla Translator hacked to use for Armenian language (Arial AMU font required) - mt504.jar file (L10n:Tools explained)
  • Put the Glossary.zip in the Mozilla Translator folder and you will see on 'Manage products' these: 'browser', 'dom', 'reporter', 'security', 'toolkit' and 'summator'
