Hi,

I've translated a bunch of Hobo apps to spanish. I have never used the
default Date select widgets, I really prefer the Jquery Datepicker. It's
very easy to install with Hobo Jquery:

http://cookbook.hobocentral.net/plugins/hobo-jquery
http://cookbook.hobocentral.net/api_tag_defs/hjq-datepicker

And later you can translate it like this:

<def tag="input" for="Date">
  <hjq-datepicker dayNamesMin="&['Do', 'Lu', 'Ma', 'Mi', 'Ju', 'Vi', 'Sa']"
    dateFormat="dd-mm-yy"
    firstDay="1"
    monthNames="&['Enero', 'Febrero', 'Marzo', 'Abril', 'Mayo', 'Junio',
'Julio', 'Agosto', 'Septiembre', 'Octubre', 'Noviembre', 'Diciembre']"
    monthNamesShort="&['Ene', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Abr','May', 'Jun', 'Jul',
'Ago', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dic']"  merge />
</def>



Not directly related, but I have some other spanish date translation
tips for Hobo 1.0.1. This initializer helps a lot:
config/initializers/date_formats.rb

Date::DATE_FORMATS[:default] = "%d-%m-%Y"
Date::DATE_FORMATS[:slashed] = "%d/%m/%Y"
Date::DATE_FORMATS[:short] = "%d de %b"
Date::DATE_FORMATS[:long] = "%e de %B de %Y"
Time::DATE_FORMATS[:long] = "%e de %B de %Y a las %k:%M"


Maybe you are also interested in a custom L10n-simplified plugin. Just
download this:
http://ihuerta.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/L10n-simplified-0.9-uyc.tar.gz.
Extract it in vendor/plugins and add the following line con
config/environment.rb before "Rails::Initializer.run do |config|"

L10N_LANG = :es


Hope it helps :)

Regards,
Ignacio
