hi any suggestions for basque services or can we close this bug?
some folks are using 
* lastfm instead of hype
* xing instead of linkedin
* often there are some geographic specific services for listings or user review websites

LMK what you think please

We don't have enough time to look this (it may sound stressful, I know ;), so can this be done post-RC1 or post-release?

Comment 3

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc (PTO until Sept 2)]

julen, yes you can, I would however suggest you to have a look at the es-ES and fr link choices.

Comment 4

[Mic Berman]

here are bug numbers for es-ES bug 428163 and fr bug 428169

Comment 5

[Mic Berman]

Julen, any ideas on what we should do here?

Comment 6

[Julen Ruiz Aizpuru]

This could be a starting point (based on es-ES and fr):

* Work
 - Google Docs
 - Remember the Milk
 - LinkedIn
 + Clipmarks

* Learn
 - Wikipedia (eu.wikipedia.org)
 - Topix
 - HowStuffWorks
 + Answers

* Play
 - YouTube (although YouTube is *very* used, we have Euskaltube.com)
 - HypeMachine (Last.fm or Jamendo)
 - Miro
 + PicLens

* Connect
 - craglist (http://geo.craigslist.org/iso/es - it doesn't seem to work, though)
 - Yelp (11870.com)
 - Facebook (MySpace)
 + Me.dium

for play i take your comments to mean you'll keep youtube and replace hypemachine.
in terms of replacing hypemachine - both last.fm and jamendo are in english so please LMK your preference. 
not sure what you mean about http://geo.craigslist.org/iso/es -- it wfm?

Comment 8

[Julen Ruiz Aizpuru]

Play: Jamendo would be better, as it puts special effort on free culture.
Craiglist: for example if I click on Bilbao, it redirects me to http://bilbao.eu.craigslist.es/ which throws a not found error.

I've tested the same URL on an en-US Firefox and it works. It seems that craiglist redirects users based on their locale. So this is a buggy behaviour from craiglist since there's no eu locale and they didn't either redirect to a fallback locale.

Anyhow, in that URL there are some Spanish cities listed, and between them we have Bilbao, which is a Basque city -- the only one on that list. I think we could replace the craiglist URL with: http://bilbao.en.craigslist.es/

[Mic Berman]

julen - i think that's a good compromise. please go ahead with bilbao.en.craigslist.es. thanks. also i'll see if i can find a contact at craig's list to report the issue

Julen, we need the page now to be able to publish basque

Comment 13

[Julen Ruiz Aizpuru]

Yes sorry, I'm very busy and actually forgot this page. Any deadline set? We'll attach it to the bug ASAP.

Comment 14

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc (PTO until Sept 2)]

As nobody seems to complain here, I've attached the translation to bug 428145

Closing this bug (finally!)
