Finn Bock commented on CLK-650:
-------------------------------
> With regards to the default date format, it is quite easy to change globally
> in an application page.properties files:
> date-format-pattern=dd/MM/yyyy
I would not do that. Of the 135 locales in my jdk1.6, only 32 uses dd/MM/yyyy.
It would IMO be better if the default pattern was taken from
DateFormat.getDateInstance(MEDIUM) if date-format-pattern is unspecified. That
way the default is reasonable and it is possible to override if the locales
default is too old-fashioned or cumbersome. However, that is for another JIRA
issue and patch.

> From CLK-624:
> Before we all go ahead and submit translations for month and day names (and
> abbreviations), I think it would make more sense for DateField to generate
> these names from here:
> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormatSymbols.html#getMonths%28%29
> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormatSymbols.html#getShortMonths%28%29
> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormatSymbols.html#getWeekdays%28%29
> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormatSymbols.html#getShortWeekdays%28%29
> By creating the arrays from java's names we will AFAIK also instantly
> "support" all language so that DateField.SUPPORTTED_LANGUAGES can be removed.
