Hi Damien,
thamks for the bug report. This string is actually generated by KLocale::formatDate( date ). If you go tp the control panel (kcontrol) and there to "Regional & Accessibily", tab "Times & Dates", does it show the date in the correct format there? If not, it's a general KDE problem and not korganizer-specific.

Yhanks,
Reinhold

So has it been fixed?
Comment 6 John Layt 2010-08-12 19:06:46 UTC
The date format in the CN file is:

  DateFormat[zh_CN]=%Y年%n月%e日 %A
  DateFormat[zh_TW]=%Y年%n月%e日 %A

but in the TW file it is:

  DateFormat[zh_TW]=%Y %B %e %A

and the HK file just uses the US default.

According to the IBM repo TW should be the same as CN, and I assume for HK as well?
