And, yes, the movie text looks good as well, never mind that I do not agree with the way the last revision albanize the writing of "web" as "ueb".

Kerim,
You need to contact either dboswell@mozilla.com or pascalc@gmail.com and ask them to create you a SVN account or a bug only for your locale, where you could track all issues and do your work. This is a bug only for sq locale. (See the [sq] on the bug name. That's to indicate that this bug is only for sq locale. You need something similar created for your locale.)

I've been waiting for any comment from any of them, but so far I've got nothing. They didn't said a word about my suggestion to the draft you brought here. I even offered to svn commit (for testing purposes) the whole draft, so they easily could see it "live". But I had no response to that too.
Leaving the bug open and waiting a bit more hurts nobody though.

For the French community, we just created an alias (contact@mozfr.org) that goes to my email address, this way we can change the target of the alias if at some point I want to delegate this task to another contributor. I believe Spanish does the same (it used to be nukeador@mozilla-hispano.org but now it is participa@mozilla-hispano.org). For Bengali and Brasilian, it is the personal email of the contributor managing incoming form requests.
Comment 28•12 years ago

Hi there,
about the contact address,
I would suggest an email mailing list we can setup. I can use google groups, is there a problem with that? something like albanian-mozilla-team@groups.google.com then we can monitor it with a group of people and new people can be added and we have an archive. new people would send to the list and we would have the mails private to the admins.
about keeping this open, we need to do hand-holding and coaxing here to get new people to help.
please keep this open until i have time to talk to these new guys. We need to give them time to respond and give them a chance to contribute. the last thing we that the new guy produced a text and besnik a text we need to reconcile the differences and go from there.

If you'd like to be able to share the responsibility of responding to incoming messages with a group, I suggest doing what Pascal did and setting up an alias.
We can't have these inquiries go to a public mailing list since the communications with potential volunteers and the contact information they send can't be public. Once they become contributors, they can make the choice of making that information public by using our public tools (like Bugzilla, etc).
For reference, there is currently a private mailing list where archives of all messages are kept (contribute at mozilla dot org).

(In reply to James Mike DuPont from comment #8)
> we have two versions now, awaiting feedback
I'm pasting here my concerns already made public to the "[Reps-General] translation of landing page" thread a month ago:
"Mundësi vullnetare" should be either "Mundësi vullnetarizmi" or something else. The text talks about the act of volunteering, so it needs a name to name that act, not and adjective.
Mozilla, Firefox, Thunderbird are registered trade mark names and as such shouldn't be changed following grammatical rules of sq. "Mozillës", Mozillën" need to be changed to "Mozilla-s" "Mozilla-n", in the same way used, say, in "Firefox-in"...
"open video" refers to a video standard here, as in "open source", not to the act of opening a video. In other words, the context is that the browser should support "open videos", rather than to be able "to open" videos.
"Quality Assurance" I think refers to the steps taken to assure a certain quality, not to a more legal involved kind of "guaranty". That's why I think translating that as "Garancia e Cilësisë" is a bit tricky from the legal point of view, and misinterpretation of the practical act. Testing a Mozilla product for quality assurance purposes does not offer ANY guaranty, it only helps to find out how the whole thing or new features are working in a newer version. Or an older one for that matter. At least this is my idea of it.
No matter what we agree to translate it, it has nothing that makes it "madhështore". Could you please change that to something of a less hype? :) (Suggestion: "rrugë e bukur", "mënyrë tërheqëse", "udhë e hijshme", "mënyrë e lezetshme" etj...)

Please note that we should soon be able to publish pages again on a per locale/per page basis on production as Webdev is working on adding this feature to our new platform. If all goes well, we should be able to push contribute pages to the world in a couple of weeks.

My purpose since 2003 has been to have Mozilla products localized into Albanian. They have been so, so far. And I do not intend to abandon them. If you like to get contributors to your projects, I'm all for it and I could help mentioning many of them in great need for contributing. Insisting to switch from a competing translation to a sandbox of translating with poor quality output is a regress. It makes no sense to ask my agreement on that. So far for the technical part of it.
On the ethical side, your move to start a translation behind my back, without any prior notice or discussion, in full knowledge that I've been taking care of all Mozilla matters in regards of sq locale for years, shouldn't have happened, if you care about "respecting".
You talk about an "albanian team" whose existence I'm unaware of. Sure, you're not talking about a Mozilla Albanian team. Nor a Mozilla Albania team. Had one been created, I'd be glad to help and collaborate with. And have you promoted to "coordinator", if they'd decided for. But that's yet to come.

No, AFAIK.
Both the domain and the site could have been bought and build by myself years ago. I refrained to do so though, for there was no any association or community who would endorse the domain. I can do it now, but I'm against building appearances. Having the site first and than build the community didn't work as expected. Look at the mozilla-kosovo.org. The site has been dead for over 16 months.
If the activists from http://openlabs.cc/ believe that a domain could boost their efforts, I would be happy to provide for that.

Brian and Besnik hi,
Brian we are exchanging daily emails with Mozilla reps from Kosovo in order to proceed with it asap. Wednesday 16.01.2013 will send you a detailed update of where we are.
Besnik, one of the reasons we started working on the website was the fact that we are not familiar on working with bugzilla and the procedures of the Mozilla community. This procedure helps us know the community better and the workflow that is implemented from the community for different tasks. So at this stage it's like an exercise for us.
I agree that a website doesn't necessarily create an community, but we need it as a tool that will help us get youngsters and in general people that have the same goal with us on board. We need to have a point of reference for all the activities done by you and by other Mozilla supporters in Albania also in order to have a clear view of what is the activity in Albania hoping that this will gather discussion and enthusiasm around the projects.
Another reason is documentation, which always helps spreading the word on a local and international level.
best,

Let me know if my financial support is needed for buying the domain name. I also have plenty of server space to host the site, so it could save you some money. Both offers would be gift, i.e. not intended to assure any sort of control over your project.

I think Mozilla is going to look after domain and hosting needs. See bug 830481.
I'm marking this bug as dependent on that for now because email addresses will come as part of the package that can be used for the contribute form. Let me know if you think it shouldn't be dependent.

Now that mozilla-albania.org is created, could I ask for an alias for all l10n matters? I'd like to know any opinion about such request especially from Brian and Redon.

That is up to you and the team. I think this request better belongs in another bug, one that requests setting up of email on the domain if you don't already have a solution for it.
Assignee | ||
Comment 46•12 years ago
|
||
On bug 830481 you can see that the requests were made for real people rather than for specific areas (say fund-raising, volunteering, l10n, activities, you name it). I wasn't nominated. And I'd prefer to get the information about all things related to Mozilla l10n first hand and raw. Preferably under @mozilla-albania.org. But I won't start a war to have that. And since aliases seem to be used by other teams as well, I thought might hurt nobody to ask for such.

Please, use either my email or an alias for it, until our friends have better ideas on how to make use of the domain created, and generally about their involvement with Mozilla. I'll respond CC-ing all four emails mentioned above, until the thing takes off. After that I'd be interested on covering only l10n matters.

My irony was intentional. It was thought as one of last efforts to draw your attention over things we're repeatedly urged you to take care, according to what your promises have been.
Back on your comment 38, March 14th we were promised to have a status update two days latter, on March 16th. Nothing arrived. No news. No apologies. Nothing.
On comment 44 I asked explicitly your opinion. No comment of any kind from you. That's was almost three weeks ago.
The same for my comment 46. The same for comment 47 and 48 from Pascal.
Here on the bug there's no info about what was needed. Neither did I get any comment in private. You might have them somewhere on your side, but I don't know where to look for them.
So much about sides.

This page has been ready for 6 months, even the 15 years of Mozilla campaign is translated and all this is bitrotting on the dev server per lack of a target email for forms. We will use Besnik email as a contact point for now so as to not waste both contributors opportunities and Besnik's continuous l10n work on this project.

See the first part of my comment 46 about why it seems to me inappropriate to use one of them. That's only my concern. Nobody is supposed to be bound by them. OTOH remaining in silence while concerns are raised, only makes one's stand seem more equivocal that it might be.

Sorry to chime in here again, but the ideal situation is that these inquiries don't go to one individual, but to an alias with more than one person on it. Why?
- Not too much burden on one person
- Person might be away from email for an extended period
Besnik, I have full confidence that you will be able to handle the emails, but the main thing is that you are aware of the opportunities in Mozilla Albania and refer individuals there if nedded.

I completely agree with you, and I've tried to express the same view. Different fields of activity would have aliases as a contact points. That's why I had concerns about using "internal style" emails like gimi@mozilla-albania.org or vjollca@mozilla-albania.org.
For not keeping the bug opened indefinitely, I proposed using my email, UNTIL the proper ones (either formal or informal style) be handed. I have no intention of becoming an interface between mozilla-albania.org and the rest of the world. That's community's task. I can't speak for the community.
The change from my personal email to the one under mozilla-albania.org is only one further step, not the real solution. And its use something to be considered temporary. In long terms community should take over the task. I got involved here only because of this bug, which falls under l10n.
Contrary to your beliefs, I'm not aware of the opportunities within mozilla-albania.org. Being in the very beginning, there's no public information about those so far. Living outside of the country doesn't help much here either, as I might have missed meetings/ discussions. I hope we won't have to wait too long.

Besnik, thanks. I agree this bug no longer needs to be open. I've filed bug 864058 for the alias setup.
