Day: November 8, 2005

I’m extremely proud to announce that I’m now joining the Flock team as a staff member. I will be working on a L10n community management, Flock’s I18n, and UI work around various tools including Bugzilla, Wiki and Flock browser.

Beside of the other tasks, in this month I will be working on two projects that will be contributed back to Mozilla project.
First one is a Bugzilla UI redesign. We are working with Chris to improve the user experience. It will get AJAX, XHTML 1.0 and a few nice UI features.
Second is a L10n tool. It will be quite complex tool that will allow you to work on source files, or to use CVS/SVN, compare locales, upgrade between versions etc. I’d also like to add support for distributed work.

First days of work are amazing. I’m working on what is my passion with a great people who have vision and the same passion to create something new for the web world. I’ll try my best to help them in this task.

Ok. Time is over. I’m walking around the project to create a XulRunner based tool for localizers for more than a year now. We were planning to create it as a MLP, AviaryPL and I wanted to make it by myself.
Now I finally have time to work on it, today I found my old thing called gTranslator, updated it to XulRunner app and started hacking. I should have a few mockups and some plan today and I’ll be looking for Xul/Js/UI people willing to help. It shouldn’t take much time, and I really prefer to create it than promote using tools like Mozilla Translator or some .po based tools.
If you want to help, comment here, or wait for more info on wiki 😉
