  • Automated Localization Build Tool - we are in currently working on our 0.2 release and are anticipating completion of the release by the end of october. We plan to start the 0.3 release in November.

Automated Localization Build Tool (0.1 Release)

  1. Software Requirements: Python --> Get it from Python's download page
  2. Download the 0.1 release here (contains Python scripts and supporting DTD & Properties files).
  3. System's instructions. Basically, once you have Python installed, double click on the l10nMerge.py script and check the corresponding DTD and Properties files for the changes to the "color" string (which should now be called "colour")
  4. For more information, check out my blog about the 0.1 release.

I'm interested in contributing to the Desktop Social Networking Integration project as well as the Testing of Canadian Banking and Financial Sites in Mozilla project. I've emailed the project's leaders and asked them to provide me with tasks they need completed.
