working on the Mac and Win32 installer, together with the core team, and making changes under their help, control and review.
Contribution Form faxed to Marcia Knous at 2103.
When you say "installer internationalization issues" do you mean localized content, or something more? If it's more, then The hacking doc at http://www.mozilla.org/hacking/reviewers.html describes how to get CVS access. You'll need a voucher to comment in this bug. If you'll be working on things other than internationalized content, then you'll need the super-reviewer OK as well. Marcia's out until Wednesday. if you get the neccessary comments from others in this bug before then, we'll ask leaf to create and activate the account. I will get the faxed form to Marcia when she returns. Mitchell
Form received. Ying-Lin: If you can get me the information that mitchell requests in her post, we can move forward with getting your account set up.

Summary: for Mozilla installer internationalization issues → for Mozilla installer internationalization issues (Ying-Lin Xia)
1) Yes, I'm only working on the installer internationalization issues, nothiing else. 2) This is for bug 42902. 3) Tao, can you be the voucher? Thanks!
Hi, Ying: Would you enumerate the directories you might modify via this account? thx
mozilla\xpinstall\wizard\mac for now, and mozilla\xpinstall\wizard\windows later, thanks
can we see some patches of the kind of work that's going to be done? I'm not comfortable giving access on the blanket "just internationalization work" statement. Installers are highly visible points of failure.
You can find the Mac patch in bug 42902, which got reviewed and super-reviwed already, and the Win32 patch is quite similar. But if you still do not feel comfortable with giving me the access, you can just close this case, I can find someone else to check the patch in.
Ying-Lin: Should this bug remain open - do you still want CVS access?
Yes, I do. But don't know yet what's my next step. I will keep tracking this after the current RTM work. Thanks.
What else I need to do, to get the account? Please help. Thanks.

Dan, can you look at patches? thanks
I only see a couple patches from last spring, not much to go on. On the other hand XPInstall could really use a thorough cleansing from an i18n file standpoint so I don't want to discourage help.
Right now, I have another small patch to fix an installer problem, need to checkin. http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67067 Later on, I will work on some other parts, like l12y/i18n bug fixes, not only the installer.
Ying-Lin: No activity on this bug since November - any updates?
Yes, yes, I still need the cvs account. And now, I'm working on the localization file check-in, ie, generate all translation from Netscape product, into Mozilla language pack files, and then contribute to Mozilla!
Hi, Marcia: I am the module owner of "mozilla/l10" and have priviledge to grant write access to "mozilla/l10n". Would you please grant the CVS write access to ying so he can check in files into mozilla/l10n. Hi, Ying: Please limit your write access to "mozilla/1l0n" until you get extension to other modules via the normal process. thx
Account activated. Ying-Lin: Make sure to confine your checkins to the mozilla/l10n area. Thanks.
