Hi,

CVS (bug <a href="

Product: Firefox
Language: Arabic
Locale: ar-JO
Name: Ayman Hourieh
Email: [e-mail]
Web page: http://www.arabeyes.org/project.php?proj=Mozilla

I'm already registered for Thunderbird by the way.

Thanks.

Hmm, I see Bugzilla doesn't like HTML, how do you create bug links then? (Sorry
for being off topic)

I added these information about Arabic l10n team into our wiki page - 
http://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n:Localization_Teams

Since Ayman has already CVS access and there are no other obstacles, I would
consider this bug as resolved.

http://mozdev.org/pipermail/project_owners/2005-June/004966.html claims that
"and the written form is pretty invariant" wrt to different arabic locales.

Would it make sense to just go for ar as locale, as suggested on 
http://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n:Simple_locale_names?

It would be great if we can go for "ar" only as the locale, I had to choose
ar-JO when I filed the bug because the simple locale names doc wasn't there yet
or I wasn't aware of it.

Yeah the differences are minor, and one locale would be sufficient I guess.

I finished an initial translation for Firefox 1.1.x today, I was going to import
it to "ar", now that the locales are extended.

great, thanks.

[Axel Hecht]

Registration completed.

Ayman, there is a huge list of things to fix, according to compare-locales.
You want to update that until Friday, 8th, as can be seen in bsmedbergs post to
.l10n.

Comment 8

[Ayman Hourieh]

OK, I'll make sure it's all fixed before the deadline.

I took a snapshot of the files like 2 months and translated them, now it's time
to update.

Any updates on the status of 1.0.x by the way?

Thanks.
