Web dashboard RSS feed empty for you? Update your URL

[Pascal Chevrel]

Hi guys,

The web dashboard has been living for a few month on the
l10n.mozilla-community.org URL and we have been redirecting hits to the
old l10n.mozilla.org to l10n.mozilla-community.org all this time but now
that l10n.mozilla.org is now officially the domain name for the products
dashboard, the redirects are no longer in effect.

So if your RSS feed is blank in your RSS aggregator or your bookmark,
that probably means that you are using the old URL scheme and getting a
404 error (file not found).

Please update your subscription to the RSS feed,

Here is an example of the valid feed for pt-BR:
http://l10n.mozilla-community.org/webdashboard/?locale=pt-BR&rss=1

Cheers

Pascal

Done (g).

The .lang files are (yet another) variant of the key=value format we localizers have to deal with. In essence

;eng original
my translation

is - save for crlf and ; - identical to

eng original=my translation

... which would syntactically correspond (or would be darn close) to *.properties elsewhere in the Mozilla mother lode. So why not streamline and change the structure and introduce .properties format altogether? The alternative would be to make PO files out of it:

...
msgid "eng original"
msgstr "my translation"

Right now one can handle it the way it is, but I am sure it will grow with time. So I am raising my hand before it turns into concrete.

I could now start on html and php files (coming soon I guess) but I will leave it for later (g).
