Hi Everyone,

I'd like to pass along an update for those following the Firefox Home
project, for those curious.

The localized application was submitted on August 25, 2010 around 12:00
PM PDT (UTC-7). For Firefox Home's past minor update (1.0 -> 1.0.1), it
took Apple seven days to approve. Unfortunately, I do not know how long
this time will take, Apple tells us nothing.

We localized the Firefox Home application in 15 different languages!
Since the app is served as a "multi-locale build", users will still be
able to shift to any of the supported 15 locales we are shipping. It is
my understanding that the OS will load the proper strings based on the
language of iOS4, as selected by the end user. In some cases, a
localized App Store will feature special content localized by our
community.

Either the Developer Team (copied here) or I will announce to dev-l10n
Newsgroup when the app has gone live. I will be away from my computer
on vacation from Sept 1-6, 2010 in case the announcement comes during
that time.

Best regards,

Seth B
