Description

[Chris More [:cmore]]

Placeholder bug for copy for the improved sync flow for 39.0.

Comment 1

[Liz Henry (:lizzard) (relman/hg->git project)]

Is this going to be en-US only or will it need localization?

It will be localized and we are going to try to re-use as many strings as possible that is going to be used in 38.0.5 and the existing FxA form.

flod, axel, just bringing you in so that you are aware of requests for localization in this feature. I just learned about it on Friday.

I think we're talking about web parts (mozilla.org), not in-product strings, right?

In that case we try to ask for 3 weeks of lead time, especially if it involves a lot of locale.s

Comment 5

[Liz Henry (:lizzard) (relman/hg->git project)]

Yes, I believe so. Chris is this all web page copy? Or is some of it meant to go into something in-product?

Comment 6

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

Is there a central point of information for what we're doing around 39?

With 38, 38.0.5, should we really make noise for 39? I'm curious how we're evaluating "updates should be silent" vs "we should brag about our stuff".

FYI we did it also for Firefox 37 and a few locales, wasn't exactly thrilled by the timing (38 was still scheduled as 38 on 12 May).

Yes, all on www.mozilla.org and we are going to try to stick with the same strings as the upcoming 38.0.5 release.

That would be great, also considering that we'll be in Whistler the week before release date.

For reference, these are the strings currently used

I think we are good with copy on the page now. 

Jpetto/habber: string frozen now? Do we have any new strings in the page? (non-iframe).

Comment 11

[Francesco Lodolo [:flod]]

Not sure why the NI. I think the plan is to hand-off strings by this Friday.

Comment 12

[Jonathan Petto [:jpetto]]

As all form headlines are contained in the iframe, there aren't any new strings in the bedrock template. Should be clean on that front.

Comment 13

[Chris More [:cmore]]

No new strings from fx38.0.5 release, so we are good on L10N for fx40. Thanks.

Comment 14

[Francesco Lodolo [:flod]]

I think I'm missing some information: can someone explain why we're talking about iframes? And, if strings are not on Bedrock, where are they?

The major change from the 38.0.5 firstrun is that we're replacing the primary CTA with an embedded Firefox Accounts sign up form. This form sits in an iframe, and is served from outside of bedrock. The strings are in the fxa-content-server repo, e.g.

My colleagues needed to fill out Rita\'s Italian Ice Employment Application yesterday and were told about a web service that hosts lots of form templates . If others are looking for Rita\'s Italian Ice Employment Application too , here's "http://pdf.ac/1qzSpa"
