Hello, SUMO Nation!

July’s almost over… but our updates are not, obviously :-) How have you been? Are you melting in the shade or freezing in the sun? Maybe both? ;-) ~~Here are the hotte~~… no, wait, the coolest news on the web, for your eyes only!

Welcome, new contributors!

If you just joined us, don’t hesitate – come over and say “hi” in the forums!

Contributors of the week

Priyansu, Nayan Banik, Moin Shaikh, and DeadDrive who have rocked Twitter for SUMO – as nominated by Noah – THANK YOU!
Cynthia, Jhonatas, and the whole Brazilian community for being super organized and mega helpful!
All the “secret helpers” who responded to a quick l10n intervention call – you rock!
wxie – for an unstoppable l10n spree for Chinese!
Facyber & civas – for their Firefox for Android KB madness in Serbian – thank you!
The forum supporters who helped users out for the last week.
The writers of all languages who worked on the KB for the last week.

We salute you!

Don’t forget that if you are new to SUMO and someone helped you get started in a nice way you can nominate them for the Buddy of the Month!

Most recent SUMO Community meeting

You can read the notes here and see the video at AirMozilla.

The next SUMO Community meeting…

…is happening on the 3rd of August!
If you want to add a discussion topic to the upcoming meeting agenda:
- Start a thread in the Community Forums, so that everyone in the community can see what will be discussed and voice their opinion here before Wednesday (this will make it easier to have an efficient meeting).
- Please do so as soon as you can before the meeting, so that people have time to read, think, and reply (and also add it to the agenda).
- If you can, please attend the meeting in person (or via IRC), so we can follow up on your discussion topic during the meeting with your feedback.

Community

PLATFORM REMINDER! The Platform Meetings are BACK! If you missed the previous ones, here is the etherpad, with links to the recordings on AirMo.
- UPDATE! We’re in the final stages of negotations and contracting details. More details as we have them (most likely in a special blog post dedicated to just the platform)
On a slightly less serious front… E10s is coming! (thank you, Jobava!)
Ongoing reminder #1: if you think you can benefit from getting a second-hand device to help you with contributing to SUMO, you know where to find us.
Ongoing reminder #2: we are looking for more contributors to our blog. Do you write on the web about open source, communities, SUMO, Mozilla… and more? Do let us know!
Ongoing reminder #3: want to know what’s going on with the Admins? Check this thread in the forum.

Social

REMINDER: A social sprint for Firefox 48 is taking place soon, stay tuned for more news soon! Repeat after me – AUGUST THE SECOND! (almost a Polish king)
Ongoing reminder: We have a training out there for all those interested in Social Support – talk to Madalina or Costenslayer on #AoA (IRC) for more information.

Support Forum

IMPORTANT REMINDER! Please report any fake firefox-update malware in this thread, the more evidence is found, the closer we get to solving this issue. What can you do?
- Provide URLs and copies of the fake file to antivirus partners to add it to their blocks.
- Report the web forgeries through the Google URL forgery reporting tool
- Looking for an ad server source is the key to success here (if there is one core source of this issue)
For those who are getting ready for the new update coming up on August 2nd, see what’s new in beta and what made the cut for Version 48!
Now, some E10s for realsies – learn more straight from Asa!
Remember, if you’re new to the support forum, come over and say hi! We’re looking forward to seeing you in the forums for SUMO days!

Knowledge Base & L10n

The list of high priority articles is here. Please make sure that they are localized as soon as possible – our users rely on your awesomeness!
Firefox for iOS 5 is LIVE! Make sure you localize all the missing pieces of the KB if it’s present in your locale.
Reminder: L10n hackathons everywhere! Find your people and get organized! If you have questions about joining, contact your global locale team.

Firefox

for Android
- Version 48 coming August 2nd.

for Desktop
- Version 48 coming August 2nd.

for iOS
- 5.0 is here! You can talk about it on our forums!

Thus, between a Firefox for iOS and a Firefox for Desktop and Android released into the wild wide web – that’s a lot of heat! Now I know why it’s so easy to sweat nowadays. Well, maybe there will be some relief in the weeks between releases ;-) Winter is coming! Slowly, but surely…

Keep rocking the helpful web, SUMO Nation!
