Thanks for your interest. We are really pleased to have you in our
mozilla bn-IN localization community . You can start from here

Some guidelines :

1.Understand the localization process [1]
2.Create an Account on Pootle [2] server to translate Mozilla Firefox
3.After  account creation on Pootle, go to My Account -->
Settings->Interface Language English (United Kingdom)  and hit Save
Button.

Now select anything from Firefox, Firefox for Android and Firefox OS
(Nothing else).

For Firefox
==========
1. Click Firefox [3]
2. And  then choose any directory where translation is needed. Focus
effort on  the user1 to others directory only. developer, configx,
security,  notnb, and never directories do not need to be translated
and should  remain in English.

For Firefox for Android
=======================
1.Click on [4]
2.Start with continue translation(.....)

For Firefox OS
=============
1. Click on [5]
2. Start with continue translation(.....) or You can translate sub
directory wise where translation needed .
