[reportlab-users] French formatting of decimal for chart label axis

[Harald Armin Massa]

Ian,

If you have floating point numbers, you can use locale from the python
standard lib.

If you are using Decimals from decimal.Decimal, the most effective way
is to use pybabel. I tried to avoid another dependencie, but
everything else takes even more time. So: be as wise as I am now, not
as I was before, and use pybabel from the start :)
