I like this way! Early translators can request languages and start working on translation here: https://crowdin.com/project/eosz |

This is a re-do for localization and closes #419
The solution is still based on GNU gettext (which is the underlying translation format for
boost::locale) however this is a simpler integration directly with that tooling.In addition, the translation for
en_USis embedded in the binary itself leaving no need to produce any translation files for a standard build. Instead, optional translations can be downloaded/packaged separately and installed in the standard location for the given OS/distro (eg{installation prefix}/share/locale). There is a.potfile that will need to be updated as new translatable strings are added, and sent to translators to process.
