SHORT VERSION: there will be a mass-landing to all locales' repositories on Thursday, around 6 AM UTC. Please use |hg pull -u| more often than usually.
LONG VERSION:
In his recent message to this newsgroup, Seth mentioned 6 strings to translate for RC1, plus 5 additional ones that had not yet landed. And they still haven't, but hopefully will land soon, once all necessary reviews and approvals are granted.
These 5 strings are all in one *new* file: /toolkit/chrome/global/videocontrols.dtd
<!ENTITY playButton.playLabel "Play"> <!ENTITY playButton.pauseLabel "Pause"> <!ENTITY muteButton.muteLabel "Mute"> <!ENTITY muteButton.unmuteLabel "Unmute"> <!-- Localization note: the #1 string is the current media position, and the #2 string is the total duration. For example, when at the 5 minute mark in a 6 hour long video, #1 would be "5:00" and #2 would be "6:00:00", result string would be "5:00 of 6:00:00 elapsed". --> <!ENTITY scrubberScale.nameFormat "#1 of #2 elapsed">
The good news is that play/pause/mute/unmute already exist in /browser/chrome/browser/browser.dtd, so they don't require coming up with new translations. And because this is happening all in a separate file, we thought it would be a good idea to mass-land this file for all locales. Our rationale is this: the risk of a conflict is minimal and even if someone forgets to hg pull -u after the mass-landing, the merge shouldn't cause any problems (because this is a new file). Mass-landing should spare you the trouble of copying&pasting those 4 translations. We can make it en masse with scripts (yay, silme!), which should be easier for everybody.
As for scrubberScale.nameFormat, the string hasn't landed yet even on central, but we will use this occasion and land it as well in this file (in English) for all locales. Please translate it before the code freeze. It's the 7th string to translate in this update.
Since videocontrols.dtd hasn't yet landed on 1.9.1, for some time it will be reported as "obsolete" by compare-locales, but after the landing on en-US, it will make the l10n builds not break. Which is probably a good thing :)
This is a heads-up message to announce the mass-landing that will happen in approximately 2 hours, at 6 AM UTC. Thanks for reading.
Best, Staś

The mass-landing is over. Please |hg pull -u| in your locale clone.
For some time the l10n dashboard might report an obsolete file (/toolkit/chrome/global/videocontrols.dtd). Please just ignore this for now. The English strings will land on en-US soon (reviews already granted, awaiting approvals) and when they do, dashboard will be happy about this file already being in your repository :) Please remember to translate the one additional string in this file: <!ENTITY scrubberScale.nameFormat "#1 of #2 elapsed">
Please let me know if you have comments, questions or issues with hg. I'll be happy to answer them or help.
Take care, Stas

will you also do a mass landing on l10n-central? (fennec use the file)

I don't think we should do the mass landing on central. The policy on who's doing what why when there differs too much between the different locales.
If you have a working mozilla-central, your repos will have diverged in their changeset history anyway by now, in particular for those that have fennec landed, so you could just import stas' landing on 1.9.1 into your central repo, and push. In case of nl, that would be
Note, this url is the "raw" diff, so if you go to the web interface, go to the changeset (which has /rev/ in its url) and use the "raw" link there. Or just edit /rev/ to /raw-rev/.
On a related note, fennec is eventually going to move to 1.9.1, too, but there are still a few more bugs outstanding until we get that up.
