Hi Leo,
To propose a new locale on Pontoon, you need to contact the Localization drivers aka Mozilla staff who's responsible for localization whose information you can find here.
Localizing a product is a huge commitment. I hope you have started to think about how are you going to complete the project (maybe start a team or look for alternative help from the local community).
I hope this helps.

Hi Leo,
What is your locale? You can go to Pontoon if you want to localize our product.

Hello Leo,
I addition to Kiki's post :
There are many different languages in your country (Afghanistan); unfortunately there is no option to download Firefox in Pashto or Dari, nor is there a language pack available in those languages.
Should you by any chance speak Hindi or Punjabi : you could download Firefox in one of those languages, using this link :
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release
Hindi and Punjabi language packs are availabe here :
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/language-tools/
But these are probably no option for you .....

Thank you for your response. I want to translate Firefox to Pashto and no, I do not speak Hindi or Punjabi... Is there a way I can create a language pack for Pashto?
Would you please take a look at these articles :
https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/build/buildsystem/locales.html
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/
If these aren't helpful at all: I'm hoping that Kiki (or someone else) will come to your rescue.

Pontoon seems perfect, but there is no Team for Pashto on it. Do you know how to create a new Team on Pontoon? Thank you for your help.
https://pontoon.mozilla.org/ you can go to here and support to localize

I just found out that Kiki is not at the office right now, but she'll be back tomorrow.
It'll probably take her a while to check all emails etc., so you may have to wait a little longer.
(sorry .... )

That is not a problem. I can wait. Thank you very much. You have been really helpful.

I know that it is a lot of work and it is going to take some time but I am fully committed to it. Thank you very much for your help.
Thumbs up and hats off to you, Leo, and good luck !
