Sumo
- Weekly metrics
- Weave Support
- Weave support will be moving to support.mozilla.com.
- Do we use a "weave" tag in the forum, or create a sub-forum?
- Tags are easier to implement and more flexible. Sub-forums are better for building communities. If we can use tags and present it like a sub-forum (e.g. Gmail or even Flickr tag URLs), that would work best. In other words, virtual sub-forums. The same will apply to when mobile support is moved to support.mozilla.com.
- Next: We should think about how it will be presented to users.
Knowledge Base
- Reformatted article - How to set the home page
- SUMO Audit report
- KB PRD progress
- Working on documentation for Verbatim in anticipation of Kitsune 2.0 release
- Targeted for Wednesday, but the sooner the better, so localizers can work started before Thursday's push.
- Right now, this is only needed for search-related strings (i.e. the search results page)
Forum
- no update
Live Chat
Roundtable
- Handling localization
- Create a communication channel for sumo localizers
- We recently created an alias address for messages to locale leaders, but it doesn't include localizers who are not locale leaders. Adding/Editing the recipient list is done via IT, so if we want people to opt in easily, we should move that to a mailman list.
- Another option is the mozilla.dev.l10n.web newsgroup/mailing list/Google Group. The drawback to that is that it includes discussion about other Mozilla websites. It is not sumo-only.
- Next: Kadir to ask localizers what they prefer.
- How to prevent localizers from translating Kitsune forum strings
- Forum strings are going to appear in Verbatim. Right now, the forum is English-only, and localizing it will give non-English users the false impression that it isn't English-only.
- We could make those templates not localizable, but in the future, we should be able to provide a support forum in another language if a locale community requests it.
- Next: This needs more time to discuss than we have in the meeting. Let's investigate a good solution, and the time/effort required for each possibility.
- Create a communication channel for sumo localizers
- Start page categories
- We need a mockup with text before giving feedback on how many categories we should have and what they should be.
