Totally, I expect to open up the app to you guys.

The whole back-end is already “multi-repo” so that we can use it for comm-central and fennec, and the rest is just granting permissions.

And no, 42 is a constant, 73 is flux.

Axel, great to see, and I guess people like Simon and me, who are coordinating L10n for other products, might want to see your tools far enough in the open that we can use them as well!

That said, is 73 the new 42? :P

Duh… what am I saying? I’m posting now using the British English 3.5b99 version, so ignore that last bit in brackets.

‘We’re still doing this by opening what we call a “opt-in thread”’

I know it will be easier to move to a neater system for doing that, but I think it’s really cool to see all the posts from different people all around the world opting in.

The Mozilla localisation work is really amazing (not that I use localisations).

This is awesome, indeed. Great work by everyone in l10n, and fantastic co-ordination, Axel.
