590123 - [br] Sample Live Bookmark feed for Breton

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Localizations :: br / Breton, defect)

Description

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

Our goal for including a news feed (RSS/ATOM) in the live bookmark is to demonstrate dynamic, changing and relevant content. We would suggest you choose something your users are interested in and that is locally relevant. The guidelines for making recommendations are on <https://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n:Firefox/Productization>. By default this is the same as en-US, which is BBC news.

Michel, do you have any suggestions?

The implementation is done via a change of the redirect on mozilla.com, and is a server-side change only.

Maybe you could look at http://www.agencebretagnepresse.com/rss-all.php

Agence Bretagne Presse (ABP) is an independant press agency diffusing exclusively news about Brittany.
The articles are in french or breton language

This looks like a good option.  

Can you contact the team at Agence Bretagne Presse and ask them if they are OK for us to include their feed as the "Live Bookmark" option in the Breton version of Firefox?  

You should also tell them that including this feed may result in an increase in requests to their servers because each Breton user's version of Firefox will ping them for updates to the news feed in the Bookmark bar.

We have contacted Agence Bretagne Presse and they have given their consent to add this feed to Firefox.
Do you need a written agreement or something like that ?

Comment 4

[Seth Bindernagel]

Can you paste the consent here?  If it's an email, you can also forward to me and to Stas.  I'll file a different bug to implement this technically.  The feed from above is the best one?

Comment 5

[Michel Nédélec]

Yes, you can use the above feed.
I have just forwarded the agreement by email so you should have received it.

Comment 6

[Seth Bindernagel]

I filed bug 612355 to take care of this.  I never received the confirm.  Can you send it again?  [e-mail] Thanks.

Attachment: Agreement from ABP for the sample live Bookmark

I have just sent you the agreement again.
Just in case, I also add it to this bug as an attachment.

[Seth Bindernagel]

Have you been able to test the Live Bookmark in the Breton build to make sure it works?  

I'm closing this bug now to resolve it as fixed.  If you see a problem, reopen and we will work on it.

It works on the Firefox nightly build and on the beta 10.
Thanks!
