Performancing Teams with Jeeran for PFF in Arabic!

By nickwPerformancing Services

With the recent release of Performancing Firefox 1.3, we introduced the ability to localize our free, open source blog editor. I’m pleased to announce, that in partnership with Jeeran, the Middle East’s largest blogging service, our first localization is now available.

Thanks to a great deal of hard work from Jeeran’s Laith Zraikat, one of the Jeeran founding partners, and Jed Brown, Performancing’s lead XUL developer, the Arabic version of PFF is complete, including “right to left” support.

If you’re not familiar with Jeeran, some of their key features include:

Now that the framework is in place, i’ll be emailing all the kind folks who’ve offered to work on tranlations for:

  • German
  • French
  • Dutch
  • Italian
  • Spanish
  • Chinese and
  • Turkish

Im sure there will be more to follow aswell. If you don’t see your language covered there, and you speak reasonable English, feel free to contact me at [email protected] and we’ll gratefully add you to the team!
