Are you a locale leader and want us to include new members in our upcoming reports? Contact us!<\/a><\/p>\n In the past weeks we have completed the migration to Fluent of all XUL panes in Preferences. Today we landed one more major bug<\/a>, migrating about 150 strings that cover the XUL portion of all the subdialogs (Fonts, Languages, Proxy, Colors, etc.). This leaves out only a few edge cases that require code changes in Fluent itself, and some strings in .properties files used also outside of Preferences. As of today, only 14 strings remain in DTD files, and 115 in .properties.<\/p>\n Given the extent of the changes we\u2019re doing, make sure to test your localization on Nightly<\/a>, and report any issue you find in migrated strings, or in the way Preferences work with Fluent.<\/p>\n In case you\u2019ve missed it, this week we also published a blog post<\/a> explaining what\u2019s been done to integrate CLDR data into Firefox in the past months, and the next steps for 2018.<\/p>\n One final reminder: Firefox 60 is an ESR version, and it\u2019s possible to localize strings only until April 25<\/b>. Make sure to complete translations before this deadline, and give yourself enough time to test, otherwise they won\u2019t be included in this release.<\/p>\n This month has been packed with good stuff in mobile land. Firefox for iOS v11 just launched with RTL support, which means we are now shipping our Arab, Hebrew, Persian and Urdu localizations. We now have RTL support on all our mobile projects, which is a really great accomplishment. Congrats and THANKS to all those involved in this! You can also learn more about this latest update of Firefox iOS 11 on the Mozilla blog: Latest Firefox for iOS Now Available with Tracking Protection by Default plus iPad Features<\/a><\/p>\n We\u2019re now shipping eight new locales on Firefox iOS with this new version: Aragonese (an), Arabic (ar), Persian (fa), Hebrew (he), Croatian (hr), Georgian (ka), Occitan (oc) and Urdu (ur). Congrats to all these teams!<\/p>\n Vietnamese (vi) is a new language that shipped on Firefox Android 59 last month, so congrats to the team on getting that going too.<\/p>\n On Focus Android side, we had five new locales ship with v4.1: an (Aragonese), gu-IN (Gujarati), hr (Croatian), oc (Occitan) and tt (Tatar). We are now at a total of 75 shipping locales on Focus for Android \\o\/<\/p>\n To conclude, just like for desktop, a friendly reminder that it\u2019s only possible to localize strings for Firefox Android 60 until April 25<\/b>.<\/p>\n The CPG, or the Community Participate Guidelines<\/a>, has been published for a while. We now make it a bit more discoverable by adding it to the Pontoon Term page<\/a>. Please take a read of the document if you haven\u2019t had a chance before. Whenever the guideline is updated, you will be prompted to review the amendment before proceeding on Pontoon. We encourage you to periodically refer to these guidelines when collaborating with others from different regions and cultures, and especially when resolving differences.<\/p>\n The Common Voice<\/a> project has brought quite a few new contributors to many communities. This is very exciting! These contributors are new to Pontoon, probably new to the localization process and to the way Mozilla localization community works. As a manager or a translator for enabled locales, please review the suggestions in a timely manner, provide constructive feedback, and re-evaluate the roles of these new localizers based on the quality of their work. Additionally, reach out to them, and get them signed up to the web project mailing list<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Here\u2019s a rough timeline of events on the Policy\/Advocacy side:<\/p>\n We were able to help launch the initial petition and email into five languages in less than 72 hours. It\u2019s been incredibly helpful to be able to mobilize so many people in just a few hours. It turned out the multiple initiatives launched by Mozilla & other organizations have been noticed by Facebook and they did what we asked \u2014 update their privacy settings.<\/p>\n Thanks to everyone who helped translate, review and approve these messages!<\/p>\n This is a first win towards a healthier Internet, but we won\u2019t stop just yet. It\u2019s actually a great way to engage on these critical issues. The campaign will continue over the next few months. We will keep widening the debate to other aspects of online privacy where we can, and not focus exclusively on Facebook. And try to move the debate outside the U.S., because everyone is affected by those issues.<\/p>\n On the localization side, we\u2019re not yet in an ideal position where we can scale our localization efforts, but this first Rapid Response campaign has been encouraging and it will help shape up the next steps of our work.<\/p>\n Mozilla released the Internet Health Report 2018<\/a>, you should check it out! It comes right on time and is quite relevant at a time where data & privacy issues are in the headlines. There is also an interesting piece on Building a multilingual Internet<\/a>. Also feel free to report issues using this GitHub repository<\/a>.<\/p>\n Pontoon documentation<\/a> has been updated to reflect the new search capabilities, and possibility to search and translate across all projects.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Image by Elio Qoshi<\/p><\/div>\n Huge thank you to Guillermo Movia, Drashti, Irvin Chen, C\u00e9cile Bertin and Mozinet for reporting issues on the Internet Health Report<\/a>. And to C\u00e9cile for also completing the French translation of the Talk plugin<\/a> from the Coral Project, which is used in the report.<\/p>\n Did you enjoy reading this report?

<\/a>Last month we reported that things were quiet on the campaign side of things. Well, it didn\u2019t last long. All of you should be aware of the Facebook \/ Cambridge Analytica scandal<\/a> by now. We launched a Rapid Response campaign, and this is the first time we\u2019re localizing it, so here are some details of what happened over the past few weeks.<\/p>\n\n
