Quiet, not still: Camino 1.6 string-freeze, new AppleGlot fixes Intel flaws, we may iLocalize

A short bulletin to tell about things going on among l10n teams.

- Camino 1.6 is "string-frozen". nothing should change in .strings & .nib files until the release, so it's a very good time to work on localization, both for existing teams and for new ones. You can download a nightly build from here: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/camino/nightly/latest-1.6-M1.8/ and...

- ... and... well the next news would be that finally we have an Intel-aware build of AppleGlot out there: http://developer.apple.com/internationalization/download/ (Apple Developer Connection free account needed to download), but...

- but still there are some flaws, one of them being that ADViewer is and will remain broken on Leopard. AppleGlot's further development is uncertain (and will likely take ages between releases, if any), so some of us decided to give a try at alternatives, namely iLocalize (http://www.ilocalize.com/ilocalize/), a tool that does most of the things done by the now-odd couple AppleGlot+ADViewer, in quite a polished way and, by the way, it has now a free licensing option, friendly to open-source based projects like Camino.

We're still trying to figure out how good localized Camino packages come out of it. We're working on it and on some kind of introductory tutorial. Stay tuned.
