IMHO we should allow internationalization and activate it by default in widgets (i.e., if it is enable at the configuration file, use it). Besides that, we should also allow passing the language as a parameter, either to override the configuration file or to allow I18N of these very specific things. Having this enable, will allow users to enter dates their 'natural' way and having it to work. -- Jorge Godoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
