Currently we have no localized currency or number handling and date/time handling is based on our translation files. This proposal aims to replace all the current infrastructure with an approach based on Zope3 locales.

oh yes... that's desperately needed

I hope that will be implemented soon. Entering 100.000,44 into a float field doesn't work very well today ;)

A possibly related issue

...is the handling of timezones. Zope/Plone assume the server's timezone. It should be possible to:

a) choose the timezone when entering a time
b) set preferences so that all times are shown in your preferred timezone.

Timezones

I'd like to second this. We're a non-profit with people in various countries, and this is really big for us. In the short term, we will probably create our own modified version of events to handle this, but it would be nice to have the portal do it everywhere.

To do this:

* Timezone should be a standard part of every profile.
* All dates and times should be displayed in your time zone
* Times you set should default to using the timezone in your profile.

For any issues with the web site functionality, please file a ticket.
