Hi Justin,

are there plans to allow creating Android l10n builds with changes to
the l10n repo which haven't been yet published (but e.g. sent with the
Try commit), so we can test locale changes before pushing to the l10n repo?

Thanks
Sebastian

Nothing on my current agenda. But I can see that being useful if it's
useful to you.

Do you have any ideas how that could look for you as a localizer?

Something similar to how comm-central pushes mozilla-central patches to
its try server?

I think this is an interesting thought for version-control.

Right now, on the l10n-drivers side, we're pretty sure that we'll keep
independent repositories per locale.

So this would be a push-to-try for 100*channels (maybe-1) thingies, and
then a task graph that would know how to generate .... artifact builds?

I do have a train of thought that thinks that revisions in l10n repos
should be part of the data that goes in to the task graph, which might
be helpful here.
