Abstract
Localization is a team effort between the developer and the translator.
This talk will cover what you need to be aware as an developer, and suggest an overall workflow that works well for both developers and translators.
Examples would be given using gettext that django supports, but will not focus on how to use a specific localization tool.
Instead, this talk will focus on what to keep in mind during development and localization, and the ideas behind the talk, such as how to use VCS with localizationm would be usable in other localization scenarios as well.
