In addition to your localization needs, do you ever have globalization needs? (I am a professional Russian>English translator with 25 years Russian language experience). 2. Tommy Davidson (that's how we know him) is my first cousin once removed. Small world, eh? Hi Seth,

1. In addition to your localization needs, do you ever have globalization needs? (I am a professional Russian>English translator with 25 years Russian language experience).

2. Tommy Davidson (that’s how we know him) is my first cousin once removed. Small world, eh?

I'd spell out "Pings for Mozilla's addons blocklist (a useful indicator of active browser users)" in the first heading, use "blocklist pings" in the table columns, and put "See _morgamic's post_ on blocklist pings" at the bottom of the PDF. “Blocklist” is at best obscure and has a lot of negative connotations.

In your case, that would be anyone who downloads the Czech translation of Firefox by clicking on the following link: http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-3.5.5&os=win&lang=cs Which they could get to by either http://www.mozilla.cz/ or http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html What doesn't get included is anyone using Firefox with a different built in localization and installing the Czech language pack (if such a thing exists). @Pavel

For example I learned that proportionally more people are using the French version in Tunisia than in France, and that overall we have more French-speaking users in Morocco than in Switzerland. So, are there plans to expand the geographic-specific information? As a matter of fact, some locales that you cited (de and fr) are used "prominently" in several countries. Maybe you could just add a few separate country reports to complement the locale reports? I’ve found these reports to be quite interesting.

Downloads from ftp.mozilla.org only or updates which comes to users via automatic updates? Thanks. What does “Downloads for [locale]” mean?
