Hi, Sorry for not making the point clearly. I do agree with ankit "It shouldn't be that hard decision to have either Pootle or Mozilla hg".
Actually i came to know about this when i worked recently on aurora branch offline (direct hg 'push/pull'). I just check the dashborad status and completed the translation according to the compare script https://l10n.mozilla.org/dashboard/compare?run=305680 Since there are unchanged entries the signoff for locale telugu got rejected giving the reason "many of them are end user facing features <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=863142>"! So now the options i have are either go back to locamotion and complete translation (or) find out the unchanged entries in my "checked out copy" to finish the translation (bit tricky). If the untranslated strings were not replaced with english strings then i can complete the translation easily even by (direct hg pull/push). conclusion: My request is If there is any solution for solving this would be great ! Thanks in advance! Regards, Krishna.
