Rajaonarisoa Fanomezana Harinandraina <[e-mail]>, bug 327434, is
interested in this, too. I suggest you work together, there is enough to do :-).

I picked this bug to come up with a solution for no particular reason.
Confirming, as we don't have a team already.

On behalf of the Mozilla Project, I'd like to apologise for the delay in processing this request. We very much appreciate offers of help in localization.

If anyone reading this is still interested in helping to translate one or more Mozilla products into the language that this bug is about, please add a new comment to this bug to confirm your interest, saying again which products you would like to localize e.g., Firefox, Thunderbird. We will then make the necessary arrangements.

thank you!

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

Reopening this bug, this seems to have slipped through Gerv's bugzilla query.

While we did not see further comments in this bug within over a month, there has been a response by Thierry on Gerv's comment 4.

Thierry, take a look at the new documentation,
http://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n:Starting_a_localization

Create yourself a wiki page for your localisation, which exposes you as the
team for that language. Then, follow the instructions on the wiki to produce a
language pack you can distribute through addons.mozilla.org. Once you have
reached that stage, we can consider your pack for official status - although I
should warn you that this is a separate process with its own complexities.
Still, the community will still be able to get your pack from
addons.mozilla.org in the meantime.

If you have read carefully and find the documentation isn't good enough in any
way, please let us know and we will improve it.

Axel: there is now a language pack. Can you advise on how this might be taken forward?

Addon has not been updated since Firefox 2.  Resolving this incomplete.  You may reopen if there is interest in the future.
