use the same compile-messages.py to produce the binary django.mo files that
are used by gettext.
Application message files are a bit complicated to discover - they need the
i18n middleware to be found. If you don't use the middleware, only the
django message files and project message files will be processed.
Additionally you should think about how to structure your translation
files. If your applications should be delivered to other users and should
be used in other projects, you might want to use app-specific translations.
But using app-specific translations and project translations could produce
weird problems with make-messages: make-messages will traverse all directories
below the current path and so might put message IDs into the project
message file that are already in application message files. Easiest way
out is to store applications that are not part of the project (and so carry
their own translations) outside the project tree. That way make-messages
on the project level will only translate stuff that is connected to your
explicit project and not stuff that is distributed independently.
