I've updated compare-locales with two important fixes: License header fix for ini files, bug 760998 l10n-merge now works with multiple errors per file, bug 756448 I've also updated the license to MPL2. Update your local installs with the usual...
Wait, what, migrating to the rapid release process? Aren't we, like, doing that? Well, not in the data models that drive the l10n dashboard. What follows is two-fold, for one, why would I be hacking on a patch for half a year? But also, there are...
Busy times for compare-locales, there's another release out the door. New in this release are a significant rewrite of the Properties parser. A lot less regular expressions, a lot more performance in bad situations. Thanks to glandium for poking...
I'm hacking on some tool that indexes the localizable strings in our apps. One of the fall-outs could be a glossary tool, i.e., which terms in Firefox, Thunderbird, etc should localizers bother to get consistently translated. Which raises an...

I've just pushed a minor update to compare-locales to pypi and the dashboard. The only change is that it applies the android quote tests to the files in mobile/android/base. As always, update your local installs by pip install -U compare-locales
I just uploaded a new release of compare-locales to pypi, hg.m.o and github. Changes since the last released version: Support for nested l10n.inis, notably, browser/branding. Errors on CSS specs, notably, if en-US is a length or min-width etc,...
As you all know we're having a new release scheme. That's all good and great for localization, but there's one tiny little peppermint: It exposed each and every design problem in the l10n dashboard, code-named elmo these days. As many folks...
Opening the magic box of l10n admin stuff: We're doing sign-offs, y'know? Localizers hit the l10n dashboard and click a button to say "this revision is good to ship". Which is cool, because then they don't need approval for every patch for...
