We also implemented an AJAX-based user registration and login using <a href=\"https:\/\/login.persona.org\/\">Persona<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Translations are now automatically saved to a [translation memory] after every change, but you can also manually save your work to a predefined <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transifex.com\/\">Transifex<\/a> project. This is particularly useful for sites which cannot be fully localized using in-place string editing.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d like to thank the amazing Transifex team who helped me a lot with using their API and even modified it to suit our needs. Special thanks go to <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/rtnpro\">Ratnadeep Debnath<\/a>, who volunteered his time to vastly improve our PO export and is now finishing the Django hooks. You rock!<\/p>\n<p>All of this has brought us to the stage where <strong>we\u2019re looking for a pilot project<\/strong>. Any not-yet-localized Mozilla website would be appropriate, but not too big in terms of number of strings to translate and locales to participate. We don\u2019t want to hurt our localizers too much! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Any candidates?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taken from\u00a0Matja\u017e Horvat&#8217;s blog: I haven\u2019t blogged about Pontoon for months and there\u2019s no excuse for that.
