Hello,
Thanks for sharing with us about the view of a localizer.

At the moment, I want to localize Firefox 3 into Vietnamese. However, the guide on Mozilla wiki is so old, it wouldn’t help! So, I got to Google and came across your site.

From the things you told here, I’d like to ask some small questions. It’d be great if you could help
a) What are the first things to do to localize FF 3.0?
b) With Moztrans 5.22 (so old, too), the exported JAR pack can’t be used with FF 3. And in this entry, you told that your team has been using a “heavily modified Moztrans”.
Does the JAR exported from this “modified” version work with FF 3? And, uhm, if there was a chance, may I use your tool?

I’d appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance.
