 Replying to [comment:6 cjl]:
 > Wha is the current status of this?  Is Pootle hosting still required?

 Thats still an open question for me.

 The problem is:

 1) we have pretty few sugar related string for AMO;
 2) the majority of work is "s/Addon/Activity/g'.

 The 2) seems for me a wrong way that was taken from the begining. We are
 separating ourselves from the AMO upstream i18n efforts and do big
 [useless] work.

 I don't see any short running solution except just leave it as-is.

 Possible long running solutions:

 * We need to work close w/ upstream to convince them to do big work of
 unifying i18n strings. I don't know other big AMO installs (maybe I'm
 wrong, didn't look for recent year news), thus, such work is mostly
 useless for Mozilla;
 * Looking for other possibilities. AMO does not feet well to Sugar general
 approach, Mozilla addons are much more simple in comparing w/ regular
 applications.
