[Anubad] Firefox OS localization in Hindi

[priyanka nag]

That's a good goal to have. So, did any of the points from a previous
discussion at <
http://arrbee.wordpress.com/2012/11/17/mozilla-l10n-discussion-notes/>
get addressed ?

Well, I was not aware of this discussion-notes else would have made sure to
bring it up. Just putting down the few things we had discussed during the
SAARC meet up (from localization point of view):

   - Documentations to be there in local languages for the Wiki pages (well
   seems like in Bangladesh, people are not much in support of reading the
   wiki pages in English)
   - Bangladesh team has managed to get the Bengali spell checker for
   Firefox. If we can get our glossary ready, we can get our spell checkers as
   well (Robin from Bangladesh agreed to help us on this).

I think Arky along with some other localization members has managed to get
a template for localization ready. The general problems we face like
whether to translate the brand names or just transliterate them etc are now
prototyped and documented. So no more conflicts on these topic...just need
to abide by the available rules. So we can get hold of this document, go
through it once before the next sprint (whenever we plan for it).
