Silesian language request

[Greg]

Hi guys,

I'd like to ask if it would be possible to add Silesian language support to Mozilla products. It's a regional language used in southern Poland and the northeastern part of the Czech Republic. I'm not sure what information you need so I'll give you the whole thing:

name: Silesian
code: szl
nplurals: 3
pluralequation: (n==1 ? 0 : n%10>=2 && n%10=20) ? 1 : 2)
rule_one: n is 1
rule_few: n mod 10 in 2..4 and n mod 100 not in 12..14
rule_other: everything else

Recently we got an unofficial Facebook, Google Search and XBMC support (I happened to be the translator:)). Also, an official support for Silesian was given from the Czech SCS Software and Polish CD Projekt in the game Euro Truck Simulator 2 (Yeah!) in which I participated, too. :)

Best,
Greg

Hello Arky,

I'm terribly sorry it took me so long to write back. I had some other things to do but I'm ready to work with the localization.

I have some questions though. The l10n documentation is a little confusing so I hope you will explain a few things to me.

If I translate strings in Narro, I don't need to download all those tools like hg, Mozilla Translation Tool, Koala etc., right? The only thing necessary is actually a copy of Firefox on my computer to test the translations?

I registered an account in Narro (User "chlodny" at http://a.maimult.ro/lmo/user.php?l=blk&u=1564).

Also the documentation says that if I want to start translating with Narro, I should contact "l10n drivers and ask the Narro global administrator to start a new localization in Narro for your locale". I couldn't find any contact information to the Narro global administrator. Is he one of the drivers?

Sorry for such basic questions but I just read about a hundred Mozilla Wiki pages and I'm a little twisted because of that. ;)

Best,
Greg
