Replying to my own post, I managed to make it work by taking these
steps:
1) in settings.py, your customized LANGUAGES dict needs to be in
ENGLISH (!!) You cannot not name elements in other languages there.
This means, however, that your language dropdown (as shown in the docu
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/i18n/#the-set-language-redirect-view
) will show the languages in the currently chosen one, which can - as a
commenter pointed out already - be pretty useless if your language is
set to Japanese and your language dropdown shows the available options
using their alphabet.
2) Only hinted at but not explicitly mentioned in the docu is the face
that in settings.py you will need to add
LOCALE_PATHS = (
'foo/templates/locale/',
)
in order to get the template directories locale files included too
In my Windows case it was
'D:/django/web/templates/',
That then did the trick.
Remember that, when your CHARSET in the .po file is set to utf-8, you
cannot use & auml; but have to use & #228; instead
Hope this helps
