This is open still and pending activity from our side. I'm working on that, still.

Please do not close, you can see activities of this group at the KiLinux web site: http://www.kilinux.udsm.ac.tz

We just need time to harmonize with main Mozilla localization site
Ali: I have looked on that site, but I only see Firefox 1.0.3, which is an outdated and unsupported version of Firefox with security holes.

I would recommend that the kilinux team form a proper Mozilla localisation team, and work within our processes to localise a more recent version of Firefox. Would that be possible? Are there people available to do this?

No response after a month; closing the bug as INCOMPLETE. If anyone reading
this is interested in localising Mozilla products into this language, we'd love
to hear from you! Please file a new bug about it.

Thanks,

Gerv

Hi

Thank you for all the e-mail messages you have sent to me. Based on your last comment #7, we apologize for being silent because most of the kilinux team members were on study leave but right now the team is re-organized again to start a serious localization of Mozilla Firefox, i wish to get a good advise from you on how we can go about because we need a CVS account to make our work going smoothly and ready to start localizing the latest version of firefox (we think version 3 is better)into Kiswahili. Am waiting to hera from you.
Sorry for everything
:/Kenny
I have team of about 10+ Linux users in Tanzania who are willing to assist in the translation of the FF3 to Kiswahili. Please tell us where can we start? Can we just use LauchPad or Mozilla has its on way. Please get back to us as soon as ypu can so that we can get organized and start the translation.
The next step would be to contact sethb as described in bug 300754 comment 40
