Hi!

Either rename your message catalog to "gettext" or pass the name of the 
catalog using "<dtml-gettext catalog="NameOfCatalog">String to 
translate</dtml-gettext>.

P.S.: I've just written a prototype of a BabelToLocalizer product that 
uses Localizer as the backend, but lets you keep the ZBabel syntax 
(self.translate() from Python and the babel and fish tags). Do you think 
this would be useful for a public release?
