Tagalog Firefox Marathon Year-End Special

Days before we bid farewell to 2012 and say BIG hello to 2013, we, the Mozillians from the province of Bataan joined the Tagalog Firefox Marathon 2012, its last localization event for the year. It was held on Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf (CBTL) Prism Plaza, Two E-Com Mall of Asia Complex last December 29. I am very happy to meet fellow Mozillians specially the Team Mozilla Philippines headed by Mr. Eusbio Barrun Jr., Community Manager and Mr. Robert Reyes, Regional Localization Lead. 

One of the special guest that graced the event is Arky, Mozilla's Community Manager for Localization in which he commend the Mozilla Philippines Community for a job well done in localization effort and emphasized on Quality over Quantity in contribution.  He introduced the latest tool used by Mozilla to its technologies and content which is the Pootle. Almost 40% of Firefox has been localized to Tagalog and we contributed during this event along with other enthusiastic and awesome Mozillians. 

Mr. Robert Reyes also announce a contest for localization contributors in which they will select the number of highest contribution and will give a prize of Mozilla mini-shirt to the contributor. 

For others who want to contribute in the localization effort or would like to start a localization on different dialect: http://mozilla.locamotion.org/tl/firefox/
