That is a joke, yes? Look at the wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendar_date and specifically at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendar_date#m.2Fd.2Fyy_.28month.2C_day.2C_year.29 Hmmm. Canada and the US (though Canada use a variety of forms) plus a couple of minor states. Not really a majority by country count. I hoped that qooxdoo, being a European based product, would not fall into the trap of being US-centric. Anyway, setting up en_GB works fine. There is still the issue of the short date format not being shown in the localization page of the Showcase. And en_GB should be added to the list of locales available for viewing on that page. This all came about because of wanting to use the DateChooserButton on a dialog, and finding the date was in the wrong format. That raises another issue - that DateChooserButton always treats the date in the locale-specific "short" format. So I've raised http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339 requesting an enhancement to make the date format specifable for the date chooser.
