Narro: An l10n tool

Back on the topic of localization tools, I scheduled a call today with a Rumanian localizer named Alexandru Szasz to learn more about his recent work on a tool that he calls Narro.  I wanted to learn what he has created and to see if Mozilla can provide any support to him.  There are quite a few tools out there, and we want to find the ones to support that will improve the Mozilla process. He explained his software and we talked more about our initiative to fund tool development through the Community Giving/Empowerment program.

Afterward, he read the evaluation criteria from my last post and blogged about it.  Here are his answers to our criteria.

What do you think?  Can you provide any helpful comments to Alexandru?

We’ve received about four or five ideas for tools development.  Some are very formal proposals and others are great projects/ideas that may or may not need our help.  As we get closer and closer, I’ll post these proposals/ideas (as long as I get approval from the tool proposers), so you can read them and see what we are considering.
