791628 - Earlybird locale download page is a mess

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Thunderbird, defect)

Description

[Vincent (caméléon)]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0 Firefox/15.0
Build ID: 20120824154833

Steps to reproduce:

Go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/channel
Click on the link "Other Systems and Languages" in order to download the French locale



Actual results:

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/latest-comm-aurora-l10n/ open and take some minutes to load, with complete Firefox hang!
Hundreds of files are listed and it is very hard to find what I am looking for


Expected results:

Some clean up is required in order to find Earlybird locale easily.

Eventually, having something similar to Firefox would be the best.

Yes it would be great to make a page like Aurora 
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-aurora.html

sancus - any thoughts on this?

Are those directories supposed to be full of gzipped... I don't know what those are, build logs?

The comparative Firefox directories have none of that. Where have the installer packages gone?

Comment 4

[Andrei Hajdukewycz [:sancus]]

OK, this is less bad for Firefox because the Firefox installers get sorted before the masses of build logs in their directories... I guess I should make a page so you don't have to scroll down through all that.

FYI, I have filed Firefox bug 792413 to track the slow rendering of that URL (which of course is completely separate from getting a nicer page put in place for "other systems and languages").
