There are an additional average 15 articles in each of the following: French, Italian, Dutch, Italian, Swedish in draft right now. !!Use case description __Site:__ http://support.mozilla.com - User documentation for Mozilla software __Current wiki engine:__ TikiWiki 1.10 with new (feb 08) translation code __Contributors:__ ?? __Translators:__ ?? __Translation tools used:__ ?? __Maturity stage:__ English content exists, some content in other languages __Peculiarities:__ Modifications go through a staging phase. Only approved pages are shown to non-editors. __Contact person:__ ((Nelson Ko)) __Priority needs:__ !!Translation issues identified by Mozilla FF Support folks, and followup conversations ''(See also ((CLWE Project User Feedback)))'' !!! Need for preferred locale in URL to support proxy caching *For scalability reasons and to support external proxy caching, a users' preferred locale (for users that are reading without being logged in) must be in the URL. Right now, this is not in TikiWiki, and I (Nelson) had to do it specially for Mozilla. Will merge in when I have time. !!!

I (Nelson) have cleaned up interactive translator (the rings thing), but somew more work to finetune. For e.g. language.php contains too many strings - even those for features not currently used. !!!UI finetuning *Page language selector is now placed in actions box [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418483]
