This is a meta bug for tracking reported issues related to localisation cleanup of dtd, properties and xul files. Items in the child bigs include: - Bad reuse of .labels (action: usually split them out into two seperate entities and name them approriately) - Bad accelerator keys ie not in .label text (action: create a good accelerator key) - Bad entity naming for .accesskey (action: match .label and .acceskey so that translators can easily see that they are related) - Bad elippsis eg .. instead of ... (action: correct)

dwayne -> mscott: I've created a number of patches. Each focused on one file. Is that what you want or would you prefer one large patch? Personally I prefer the multiple patches as its easier to make the decision to apply. But then I'm also not the person reviewing or applying the patches to CVS.

This script: http://pootlebugzilla.sjsoft.com/attachment.cgi?id=25 Which is part of Translate Toolkit bug 64: http://pootlebugzilla.sjsoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=64 Helps identify permutations of .accesskey markings. Helpful for finding items that need cleaning.

Hi Dwayne. We have a couple weeks until TB3 b1 string freeze 2008-09-16, and beta 1 driver (standard8) doubts we're going to be touching these areas. So we'd be pleased to see these get driven in for beta, given it will help localizers. TB3 schedule https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Thunderbird3:Schedule Are you up for driving in the remaining bugs for beta 1?

Hi Wayne. I'm not sure what driving these bugs would mean from me. Does it mean checkin or asking for review, etc. If someone is able to hold my hand through a few then I'd be more then happy to push these in. They've sat for a while and they really will help smooth localisation.

They've sat for a > while and they really will help smooth localisation. If you're happy to update the patches for these bugs, and request reviews etc, then that is most of the "driving" requirement. If reviewers are slow (e.g. more than a week or two) then that's when you just need to give them a gentle reminder. I'm certainly willing to guide you through. http://developer.mozilla.org/En/Getting_your_patch_in_the_tree provides some useful information. For possible reviewers (depending on the area the code is in) see: mailnews/: http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/review.html mail/: http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/review-mail.html suite/: http://www.seamonkey-project.org/dev/review-and-flags Your first step would be to update one or more of the patches for comm-central (see http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/comm-central if you don't know about it already), and re-submitting it, requesting review at the same time. Make sure I'm cc'ed on the bug, and I'll guide you through as necessary.

(In reply to comment #6) > mailnews/: http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/review.html > mail/: http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/review-mail.html > suite/: http://www.seamonkey-project.org/dev/review-and-flags Just to note, in case you haven't realised it from those pages. mailnews/ requires review and superreview, mail/ and suite/ only require a single review. If the patch is reasonably small (like I expect most of the localisation clean ups will be) then requesting review and superreview from the same person for mailnews/ is fine (as long as they have superreview permissions!).
