We need a bugzilla component for the th Localization.

Component: th / Thai
Description: Thai Localization (...)

Assignee: nobody
QA Contact: thai.th@localization.bugs

Isriya, could you provide a utf-8 encoded translation of 'Thai Localization' to include in the component description?

"Mozilla ภาษาไทย"

(roughly reverse translation - "Mozilla in Thai")

"Mozilla ภาษาไทย" actually translated as "Mozilla in Thai language"
(ภาษา - language, ไทย - Thai).

I'm not sure if this appropriate enough or not, as while translation (language) is a large part of localization, we all know that it includes other customizations as well.

Still, "Mozilla in Thai" really is an intended meaning, should it be "Mozilla ไทย" instead ?


Anyway, I see it redundant to put the word 'Mozilla' here.

I propose "ฉบับไทย" or just "ไทย" as the translation of "Thai Localization". 

'ฉบับ' means 'edition', more or less.
In Thai, 'ฉบับ' is used in publication to indicate different narrations of the same story.
In Thailand, Microsoft used to use the English word 'edition' for its Thai localized softwares (e.g. Windows 3.1 Thai Edition).

Isriya, Arthit, mind adding thai.th@localization.bugs to your watch list in bugzilla? You do that on https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email. That way you'll get notified on new bugs filed on the Thai localization.

Please watch firefoxl10n@hotmail.com, too, as we rarely use that to notify localizers about issues involving all or most of our localizations.
