Messages in user's language

[ghost]

Users expect to get e-mails in their native languages.
So the notification should somehow know and use user's language.
Does django-notification have this feature?

Yes, there is a function called get_notification_language() (http://github.com/jtauber/django-notification/blob/master/notification/models.py#L199). It will use a setting NOTIFICATION_LANGUAGE_MODULE to load the user language from an arbitrary model and should be formatted like <app>.<model>. The model should have two fields: a foreignkey to the User class (user) and a language field (language) which stores the language code (e.g. en).

In Pinax for example we use this model:

Thank you! Now it's clear. Probably you will want to add this comment to the documentation.

I think there should also be a fallback to the default language code:
LANGUAGE_CODE defined in settings.py

What do you think? I just put up a quick fix at my fork: http://github.com/bjunix/django-notification/commit/da1a81fda93e7c1cd743d0b5f2eac217c05c8668
