Hi Sarves,

sorry for the lag. We're still busy with the existing locales being in
the endgame for Firefox 3.0.

Those locales that we're shipping partly went through really rough
waters, due to us sending contradicting messages and docs being
confusing or wrong.

The not-so-good answer to your question is, I don't have a satisfying
answer for what it takes for you to ship on Firefox 3. Like, I can tell
you that web services review and in-product pages are missing at least,
but turning that into a statement that makes sense for new locales is
pending. Most locales that are now up to ship in Firefox 3.0 are
shipping Beta releases for up to half a year, and we're going back and
forth over search engines and protocol handlers with some of them still.
I bet that that's not the process you want to join.

We're currently working on fixing that, but as most of the team is
flooded, that doesn't go as quickly as we'd love to.

The same apology goes out to the other locales in the queue, and of
course to those that went through the back-and-forth.

Hope that makes sense

Axel
