welcomeani.gif No there is not unfortunately, as you can see you have to browse the list and spot the x of y Strings translated = n %
for every file, which is quite annoying in your case, since it seems you translated everything rockon.gif .
The missing parts of the 100% are just some non-standard files xhtml, js and some oddities, that I think you have done too, so the percentage counter is not fully trustworthy when files are different from .dtd or .properties.

welcomeani.gif As mentioned on our announcement here (#3), please send a PM to our Tech Admin Fenian who will do it asap.

I can see you already started the Polish Spicebird project
which is great, but you should also contact teo and possibly start a new topic on the Polish BabelZillian forum
in order to let you language community informed, maybe gather a little team and so on.
Keep on rocking ♫

rolleyes.gif Sure it is a big challenge, considering there seems to be no TB or Sunbird file available for Arabic (to be confirmed).
I suggest you MUST create a team before drowning in strings deep soup smile.gif
maybe contact Arabic translators for Firefox(?) and ask for contributions.

[edit] some hope here

Hello, Timaba and me found some strings that aren't totally clear. Unfortunately i forgot them, but it will recome smile.gif.

Is it possible to create one point where translators can post those problems. If translators can't understand the meaning, this can be handled as a bug, sunilmohan already created one to clarify such a discussion.

Commonly, requests for clarifications can be posted in the add-on's (or in this case the langpack's) thread, meaning right here in this case. It is up to the author whether he/she prefers to get bug reports in a separate way or in this thread too. It basically depends on the question whether providing clarity could be helpful to other translators as well; then the topic is the right place wink.gif

smile.gif For translators who have already strings imported from Sunbird and Thunderbird for their language, this piece of information by sunilmohan smile.gif from Spicebird team, to help you to spot the target files for translation

QUOTE
"collab" is the only directory that contains Spicebird specific files which is very few strings (about 300 I think).

"calendar" contains Mozilla Lightning files and "mail" contains Thunderbird files. The rest belong to the Mozilla platform. So, if a language has translated these files for the first time (like Arabic is doing), they could submit their translations to Mozilla Thunderbird and Mozilla Calendar projects which would be great help all the users using those products too. I can help them with the process if required.

I think there is already a BZ irc channel in use but let me one minute to find back its name, because I use it very rarely rolleyes.gif

It is. The discussion can happen on irc.mozilla.org #Babelzilla
I am present there most of my work time.

Hello, what happens with the changes done in Thunderbird files ? Is it possible to create a diff with the original cvs ? This diff will can be sent to the locale bugzilla, whenever the translater wants.

smile.gif I think yes it is possible, yesterday night on the irc Sunil said he wrote a script to migrate back BZ files to cvs (if I understood). But I am not very sure it is necessary to send a diff. With bugreports on their bugzilla then can manage quite well (I suppose)
