Translation issue of "Vietnamese" on Mozilla websites

[NGUYEN-Manh Hung]

Hi,

I notice that the beta download pages for Fx and TB and the AMO site are using the wrong translation of the word "Vietnamese". In all those cases, the translated word should be written as "Tiếng Việt", instead of "tiếng Việt". So, may I propose a change here? Because eventhough it's just a small typo, it's really quite annoying.

Moreover, I notice that not only Mozilla but some other sites also use the wrong translation of that word, which made me wonder if you all take it from the same source? If yes, I'd really want to know where it is, and I'll talk to the original author/translator about that.

Thanks,

Absolutely.

Please file a bug and it will be assigned to Web Dev.

I am not sure where the original came from. Perhaps someone on the
web team will know?

For reference, I think that we're bootstrapping the information from
languageNames.properties in the new language. Not sure why that ended up
with a lowercase tieng in this case, because the file had it with
Uppercase (and then changed it to just Viet). Sorry for dropping the
accents etc in my recap.
