815278 - Localization needed for about:healthreport server side content

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Localizations :: Other, defect)

Description

[Laura Thomson :laura]

Filed https://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n:FHRJelly with details known so far.

The content is not yet finalized, but will consist of HTML that will be served over the web and be used by Firefox to render about:healthreport.

This is a web localization bug, but the tracker is filed under Firefox:General, so I wasn't clear how to file this as per https://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n:Localizing_Projects_and_Content.  Please correct as needed.

Will a new specialized website be built to host that content or will it be part of an existing site?

A new specialized site will be built.

A few more questions:

- Will this about:healthreport be an url available for desktop Firefox only or also for Firefox for Android?
- If this is going to get regular text updates, like weekly, will text updates be created the week before they are in the product or several weeks before?
- Will there be a testing server set up soon to have an idea of what it will look like?

Thanks

I believe it is only for desktop.  ccing deinspanjer for comment.

This one is for deinspanjer or tnorris.  My question: how far in advance would you like it to be done?

I will file an infra bug soon and put the bug number in here.

Also, we think it might be easiest if we use the same l10n process as start.mozilla.org.  Is that a good way to go?

Initial release will be desktop only, but will eventually be released on Android.

The reason for the smaller iterative updates is so we can fine-tune the actual visualizations. Changes to strings should only be happening per Fx release, and should be available several weeks before.

Right now the majority of strings are in the product. The externally hosted iframe exists for a small set of data visualizations. For that we are still in process of finalizing the functional spec (amazing how complex a single graph can be). Once that is done we'll get the designs from UX.

Until then we won't know exactly how many strings are needed. In the first release of visualizations there will only be a single graph, so at most we'd have a dozen short strings.

We intend for this to work exactly the same as start.m.o, which means using .lang files.  

Strings are supposed to be finalized today, and we should have the repo and staging environment set up shortly.  jakem is point from Ops.
