Bug Description

One of the areas that app developers are often confused about are how they can build translations support into their apps. I would like us to ensure that we have a page on http://developer.ubuntu.com/develop/ for Translations that explains not only gettext but also how Rosetta provides a great interface for enabling a translations community.

I key part of this page should be explaining that Qt apps must use gettext to be considered for inclusion in Ubuntu.

I am assigning this to David as this is most logically his area. There should be a chapter in the Ubuntu Manual about this too.

I agree we need to provide docs on how to translate apps and scopes in the standard ways using SDK tools, LP and etc.
