Subject: [Bug localedata/15403] New: en_CA locale should use 4-digit year
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2013 21:42:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-15403-131@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15403

             Bug #: 15403
           Summary: en_CA locale should use 4-digit year
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.17
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: software@zerker.ca
                CC: libc-locales@sourceware.org
    Classification: Unclassified


The current date-time format for en_CA uses the 2-digit year (%y) for the short
date format. After the year 2000, it has become customary to use a 4-digit date
to avoid confusion. The en_US locale has already been updated to use a 4-digit
date, but the en_CA locale is unfortunately left behind.
