Doug Fish faae8b86fa Pseudo translation tool
A tool to allow pseudo translations to be created in order to identify
potential translation problems. To use the tool:
Make sure your English file is up to date:
./run_tests.sh --makemessages

Run the pseudo tool to create pseudo translations:
./run_tests.sh --pseudo de

Compile the catalog:
./run_tests.sh --compilemessages

Run your dev server. Log in and change to the language you pseudo translated.
It should look weird. More specifically, every translatable string is going
to start and end with a bracket and they are going to have some added
characters. For example, "Log In" will become "[~Log In~您好яшçあ]"
This is useful because you can inspect for the following:
- If you see a string in English it's not translatable. Should it be?
- If you see brackets next to each other that might be concatenation.
- If there is unexpected wrapping/truncation there might not be enough
  space for translations
- If you see a string in the proper translated language, it comes from an
  external source. (That's not bad, just sometimes useful to know)
- If you get new crashes, there is probably a bug. :-)

Horizon (OpenStack Dashboard)

Horizon is a Django-based project aimed at providing a complete OpenStack Dashboard along with an extensible framework for building new dashboards from reusable components. The openstack_dashboard module is a reference implementation of a Django site that uses the horizon app to provide web-based interactions with the various OpenStack projects.

Using Horizon

See doc/source/topics/install.rst about how to install Horizon in your OpenStack setup. It describes the example steps and has pointers for more detailed settings and configurations.

It is also available at http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/topics/install.html.

Getting Started for Developers

doc/source/quickstart.rst or http://docs.openstack.org/developer/horizon/quickstart.html describes how to setup Horizon development environment and start development.
