Are you a locale leader and want us to include new members in our upcoming reports? Contact us!<\/a><\/p>\n Firefox 111, shipping to release users on March 14, is going to include two new locales: Friulian (fur) and Sardinian (sc). Congratulations to the team for this achievement, it\u2019s been a long time since we added new locales to release (Firefox 91).<\/p>\n A new locale is also available in Nightly, Saraiki (skr). Unfortunately, it\u2019s currently blocked by missing information in the Unicode (CLDR) database that prevents the layout from being correctly displayed with right-to-left direction. If you want to help them, feel free to reach out to the locale manager<\/a>.<\/p>\n In terms of content, one major feature coming is Cookie Banner Reduction, which will allow users to automatically reject all cookies in cookie banner requests. Several strings already landed over the last weeks, but expect some changes and instructions on how to test the feature (and different variations of messages used for testing).<\/p>\n Just as for Firefox desktop, the v111 release ships on March 14 for all mobile projects, and also contains strings for the new Cookie Banner Reduction feature (see section above). Stay tuned for more information around that.<\/p>\n The site is going to go through some transformation this year. It involves restructuring such as removing pages with duplicate information, consolidating other pages, redesigning the site, and rewriting some copy. Having said that, the effort involves several cross functional teams to accomplish. Impact of these changes on localization is estimated to be in the second half of the year.<\/p>\n If your locales have some catching up to do, please continue working. Your work won\u2019t go wasted as it will be stored in the translation memory in Pontoon. Speaking of such, congratulations to the Saraiki (skr) team for completing the project. The site was recently launched on production.<\/p>\n Strings related to tools for reviewer and admins have been removed from Pontoon. The features used to be available for vetted contributors plus Mozilla staff and contractors in the production environment, but now it\u2019s no longer the case. Since the localized strings can\u2019t be reviewed in context by localizers, the team has decided to separate the strings from landing in Pontoon. Currently the feature is partially localized if your locale has done some or all the work in the past.<\/p>\n Behind the scenes, the Firefox Accounts team are in the process of refactoring a number of pages to use Fluent. This means we will see a number of strings reusing translations from older file formats with updated Fluent syntax. These strings are in the process of landing, but won\u2019t be exposed until the rework is done, so it may be some time before strings can be reviewed in production.<\/p>\n Congratulations to Baurzhan of the Kazakh (kk) team for recently raising the completion rate of his locale from 30% to 100%. The Kazakh locale is already activated on staging and will soon be released to production.<\/p>\n You can now learn more about Kitsune releases by following this Discourse topic<\/a>.<\/p>\n Pontoon\u2019s editor is undergoing improvements, thanks to some deeper data model changes. The \u201crich\u201d editor is now able to work with messages with multiple selectors, with further improvements incoming as this work progresses.<\/p>\n As with all other aspects of Pontoon, please let us know if you\u2019ve any comments on these changes as they are deployed.<\/p>\n We started evaluating the Pretranslation<\/a> feature on pontoon.mozilla.org<\/a>. Testing is currently limited to 2 locales, but we\u2019ll start adding more when we reach the satisfactory level of quality and stability.<\/p>\n Thanks to our army of awesome contributors for recent improvements to our codebase:<\/p>\n Want to showcase an event coming up that your community is participating in?
