[Delphine Lebédel [:delphine - Use needinfo]]

This isn't an RTL bug, it's a localization bug. I've seen many instances where date formats are improperly filed as RTL bugs. Please be careful and communicate to your team!

That said, I'm not 100% sure this is improperly formatted in this particular case. I will let Ahmed or Rami

[Delphine Lebédel [:delphine - Use needinfo]]

oops forgot to finish my sentence! I will let Rami and Ahmed decide :)

Hi Rami,
Could you help with it? Thanks!
This issue has been verified failed on latest build of Flame 2.2/3.0 with the same steps in comment 0. Actually, the date format is shown as day of week, day, month from right to left. And there is a new problem now, the comma is misplaced, it should be located at right side of day.

Sue,
Is it possible to see the reference of the localizing strings. For example, %A, %b %e what does A, b e means?

It seems to me those are PHP date format parameters. You can see the whole list, with explanation, here:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php

[Francesco Lodolo [:flod]]

There's a link in the date.properties file (not sure if the PHP implementation is actually the same)

Hi Josh,
This issue still exists on latest build of Flame 2.2/3.0 with the same steps in comment 0. The date in headers at day view is shown as month, day, day of week from right to left, and it should be day, month, day of week from right to left. Could you please help with it? Thanks!
