Description (last modified by )
Using en-GB_josm-tested.jar (r5482) on XP SP3. If I show the History of a way then the History List View and Version labels display dates using en-US format “m/d/yy h:nn [ap]”. What I expect to see is en-GB format “dd/mm/yy HH:nn”. The Help > About dialogue shows a formatted date as expected. My regional settings are for English, United Kingdom with short date format “ddd d MMM yyy” and long date format “dddd d MMMM yyyy”.

I only have Default (Auto-Determine) (currently set) and English as the available options under preferences > Look and Feel > Language. Perhaps this means the en-GB download isn't actually en-GB? I used http://josm.openstreetmap.de/josm-tested.jar?lang=en-GB as download source.

I tried downloading with ?lang=en_GB and that made the English, United Kingdom localisation available.
I suggest that the server URL rewriting should support the hyphen-minus language/country separator as well as the underscore. This used to be the case until a month or so ago.

@Dirk: could you have a look at this ?

en-GB never worked and I also don't like to implement it, as everywhere I know the underscore is used.

Aside from ISO standards of course.
If no change will be made then at least update the Translation wiki page to indicate that it should be en_GB and not en-GB as users naturally expect.

Hello,
If no change will be made then at least update the Translation wiki page to indicate that it should be en_GB and not en-GB as users naturally expect.
I didn't find any place which is described wrong.

Sorry, I recalled the page incorrectly. It is in fact the Download information at http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Download - search for ?lang=
You've got "en-GB_josm-tested.jar", ok, but could you check that the language used in JOSM is correctly set to "English (United Kingdom)" in the preferences ? Looks like it is set to "English".
