| 21 | This talk will give a short insight of |
| 22 | <ul> |
| 23 | <li>How to make the Mozilla UI localizable (entities, string bundles)</li> |
| 24 | <li>How Mozilla can switch to different languages (chrome URIs, chrome registry)</li> |
| 25 | <li>How we do the actual localization work (MozillaTranslator)</li> |
| 26 | <li><a href="l10ntalk_10.html">Current problems</a> (localeVersion updates etc.)</li> |
| 27 | <li>Useful resources for localization (l10ntools etc.)</li> |
