This document provides an overview of localization (L10N) at Mozilla. It discusses what localization is, Mozilla's L10N system including use of DTDs and entity references, the rapid release process and localization of rapid releases, the Japanese localization system including testing localization using language packs, and other areas requiring localization beyond the Firefox application itself such as websites and the Firefox home page.
