Lightning and Sunbird 0.5 RCs have Landed

[Clint Talbert]

At long last, the Calendar 0.5 RC's are ready! We have the Sunbird RC
for all our supported locales as well as the Lightning RC for all our
supported locales AND a Lightning Universal Mac build. Localizers,
we'll need your help to check and fix your locale on Lightning, since
this is the first build of Lightning that includes all shipping locales
for the 0.5 release.

If you find a bug in either Lightning or Sunbird for your locale, please
file a bug in bugzilla, and be sure that it blocks bug 375873. This is
important so that the release engineers can find the files you changed
and move the release tags forward so that they are picked up for the
next spin of the release candidate build.

We will be holding a localization test day [1] on Friday, June 1. Feel
free to drop by if you'd like to help us test your locale or other locales.

Here's where to get your hands on the RC:
-----------------------------------------
* Lightning 0.5 RC 1 --

* Sunbird 0.5 RC 1 --
http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/sunbird/releases/0.5rc1/
-----------------------------------------

Thanks to everyone who has helped with this release.

Happy 0.5!

We have added table to the testday page on
http://wiki.mozilla.org/Calendar:QA_TestDay:2007-06-01#What_specifically_will_we_be_testing.3F
where we would like you to sign-off on your localization, if possible.

It would be great, if you (or your communities) could complete the table
today, tomorrow or on Saturday at the latest.

If everything looks fine, please put an OK in for your locale, where
currently "no information yet" is written. If you find issues, please add
the bug number to that table.

Thanks in advance
Simon
