Hi Javier,

Changing all date and time formats to en_US wasn't necessary, only the ones 
that are used to edit already existing values must comply with the separators
defined, which currently are formatindex 21, 43, 44, 45, 47, and the time 
format of type="medium" with default="true" (I should point this out in the
locale.dtd). Btw, the combined date/time formatindex="47" is not editable, 
result is of type string after editing.

I would define the ListSeparator to be more "sane", note that separators define
characters mostly to help in parser contexts. Line 125 contains an "edit error"
and the format code is garbled such that it doesn't even compile. The resulting 
change is:

21c21
< <ListSeparator>à½~Qà½~Dà¼~K</ListSeparator>
---
> <ListSeparator>;</ListSeparator>
125c125
< C</FormatCode>
---
> <FormatCode>HH:MM</FormatCode>


What further caught my attention: the percent format codes are no percents.
They are integer respectively decimal followed by some string. Currently we
don't allow other characters than '%' to designate percentage, leaving the '%' 
out in the format code may produce strange behavior at some places, for example
when opening the number formats dialog on a cell where such a format was
applied will present you with no selected entry, because the format code itself 
bears no sign of a percentage format. This is not changable for OOo2.0. Also
the automatic behavior that appends a '%' when entering a new value in a cell
that is already percent formatted doesn't work with these formats.

Sorry, so many constraints to fulfill.. please correct formatindex="47" to be
editable, and change the percent formats.

Thanks
Eike
