the LANGUAGES settings array holds tuples of language code and language
name. This array is used in templates for language selection. By default,
language names are not translated. The docs show a sample of how to
translate the names into the current locale:
{{{
gettext = lambda s: s
LANGUAGES = (
('de', gettext('German')),
('en', gettext('English')),
)
}}}
Which I think is wrong. If the locale is Chinese, I won't be able to
choose between Hebrew and Russian.
The attached patch chages the i18n context process so it translats every
language name to its native language. I couldn't think of a way to test it
so I added a new view to the [http://127.0.0.1:8000/hello/i18n/ example
site].
