This is an celebration event for the contributors who have given their efforts in Localizing the Firefox for Android (Fennec) and other Mozilla Products viz Marketplace,Nightly,Firefox,Firefox OS.The whole event was planned by Biraj Karmarkar.

What Happened:


The agenda was pretty neat and was kept short and informative  as always .The meeting started at 14.00hrs. In a CCD , we all gathered and Biraj started by a round of introduction as I already mentioned this was to highlight the bn-IN contributors so many new faces were seen.With time Biraj started with "How" can the contributors increases their Localization skills and also efficiently answered all the general doubts. After which Biraj gave an lucid idea of styling guidelines. Swarnava ,gave us a concrete idea of how localization reviewing is done with respect to SUMO. All 3 hrs were awesome and ended with some crunchy frappe. After which we received an awesome t-shirt with the new Localization logo designed by Eilo Qoshi on it. After which followed the swag distribution.
