[Bug 921476] Re: default date format should use one of the most used date format instead of one of the least used one
IMHO the same is true für period names
these should be 2012-01 - also to allow sorting according to timeline

Title:
default date format should use one of the most used date format
instead of one of the least used one
Status in OpenERP Server:
New
Bug description:
'_get_default_date_format' method in
'openerp/addons/base/res/res_lang.py' returns the least used one in
the world according to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country : '%m/%d/%Y' which
is used in 2 countries in the world: USA and Belize.
IMHO, The default one should be '%d-%m-%Y' which is used by most
countries and also by the biggest population in the world.
This method is used when you install a new language because the
'date_format' is not defined in the data files. So whenever a new
language is added to the system, its date_format is '%m/%d/%Y' which
is wrong in the majority of cases.
I think that method should returns the commonly used '%m/%d/%Y' format
and res.lang data files should add a specific date_format to some
languages when necessary.
