449836 - [en-ZA] Migrate CVS over to hg

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Localizations :: en-ZA / English (South Africa), defect)

Description

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

We'll need a good point to migrate the content in cvs for en-ZA over to an hg repository beneath http://hg.mozilla.org/l10n-central/

Please follow up to this bug when you think you're ready, setting the status whiteboard to a timestamp you'd consider good.

Please don't land content in hg yourself before the initial migration is done, we want to make sure that the initial content in hg maps a cvs tag so that we can fix up hg annotate on the website to refer to cvs blame at one point.

We have the repo, but there isn't really a point of migrating the mostly unchanged English from one to the other.

Comment 2

[Dwayne Bailey]

It is important for us that this is migrated to hg for these simple reasons:

1) The en-ZA has been reviewed by people not scripts, I do not trust your automated scripts as it requires checking post fact.
2) The process we followed fits well within our existing processes for our other 10 languages.  To make an exception for us results in a waste of people time.
3) en-ZA provides a platform for us for localisation as it allows for spell checker delivery and local content customisation.  In the time that this has been debated we actually just never got exposed to the other 85% of South African users that don't use Firefox.

For me this is simple, its about localisation.  In the time this has been debated we've lost a few years of exposing South African English speakers to sites specific to them, to a South African spell checker, etc, etc.

Thus I'm reopening this.

This is blocking the release tracker for en-ZA (bug 415587).

Dwayne, can you attach a ZIP with your localization of current mozilla-central for our review in this bug, please?

Thanks!

[Dwayne Bailey]

I'll do a migration and update to 4.0 then attach the Zip.  Hopefully this week.

Attachment: en-ZA Fx4 l10n files

I've attached a tarball of the files.  Staś I put you in for review request, please change if that's incorrect.

r=me with comments. I'll push this as is though, as soon as the tree permits. I need to change all-locales in mozilla-central, and that tree is a bad orange princess all day.

The last four look wrong.

Also, there are a bunch of files missing that I expect to break the build, but we'll see.

Initial landing is http://hg.mozilla.org/l10n-central/en-ZA/rev/da42b2ac16c5.
I've had to add 4 files, http://hg.mozilla.org/l10n-central/en-ZA/pushloghtml?fromchange=da42b2ac16c5&tochange=aa8d04e439e6, please make sure to not regress those?

Marking FIXED.
