translator objects now have the following search path:
- selected locale messages in the tracker locale dir
- selected locale messages in the system locale dir
- english messages in the tracker locale dir
- english messages in the system locale dir
automatically compile .mo files if needed (found .po file
and .mo is missing or .po mtime is greater that .mo mtime)
removed support for python < 2.0. gettext module is now required.
get_translation: removed 'domain' argument, added 'tracker_home' argument

| 632 | |
| 633 Auditors are called with the arguments:: | |
| 634 | |
| 635 audit(db, cl, itemid, newdata) | |
| 636 | |
| 637 where ``db`` is the database, ``cl`` is an instance of Class or | |
| 638 IssueClass within the database, and ``newdata`` is a dictionary mapping | |
| 639 property names to values. | |
| 640 | |
| 641 For a ``create()`` operation, the ``itemid`` argument is None and | |
| 642 newdata contains all of the initial property values with which the item | |
| 643 is about to be created. | |
| 644 | |
| 645 For a ``set()`` operation, newdata contains only the names and values of | |
| 646 properties that are about to be changed. | |
| 647 | |
| 648 For a ``retire()`` or ``restore()`` operation, newdata is None. | |
| 649 | |
| 650 Reactors are called with the arguments:: | |
| 651 | |
| 652 react(db, cl, itemid, olddata) | |
| 653 | |
| 654 where ``db`` is the database, ``cl`` is an instance of Class or | |
| 655 IssueClass within the database, and ``olddata`` is a dictionary mapping | |
| 656 property names to values. | |
| 657 | |
| 658 For a ``create()`` operation, the ``itemid`` argument is the id of the | |
| 659 newly-created item and ``olddata`` is None. | |
| 660 | |
| 661 For a ``set()`` operation, ``olddata`` contains the names and previous | |
| 662 values of properties that were changed. | |
| 663 | |
| 664 For a ``retire()`` or ``restore()`` operation, ``itemid`` is the id of | |
| 665 the retired or restored item and ``olddata`` is None. | |

1913 The form variable is a bit special because it's actually a python |
| 1142 | 1914 FieldStorage object. That means that you have two ways to access its |
| 1915 contents. For example, to look up the CGI form value for the variable | |
| 1916 "name", use the path expression:: | |
| 1917 | |
| 1918 request/form/name/value | |
| 1919 | |
| 1920 or the python expression:: | |
| 1921 | |
