Comment:

 The JSON standard for serializing decimal values does not provide for
 localized formatting. (See JSON.org.) This is why values are not
 localized. I think it would also make the date less portable across
 locales.

 If you need localized values, then I'd suggest to create a custom encoder
 for your serializer of choice which outputs the decimals appropriately.

 If you disagree and feel this is something Django should provide, please
 raise the issue on the DevelopersMailingList.
