Summary:                    Problem with entering dates
Description: 
I recently upgraded from 0.59 to 0.6.0 beta 3.
I noticed that the way data field is handled has changed.
The date format is fixed to MM/DD/YYYY and there is some automatic
conversion. Eg. do the following:
1. Goto transaction/schedule form
2. In the date field, enter 3/12/2009 [as in March 12th 2009]
3. Tab out. Notice that the field automatically gets converted to
12/3/2009 [as in 3rd Dec 2009]

Is there no way to enter a transaction for 12th March now?

The same issue was observed in the date fields of the new archive feature.

The development team is 100% french, and sometimes, we tend to forget about
other cultures that have other ways to deal with dates and numbers. Please
excuse us for that.

We'll look into it ASAP.

The cause of this bug is a localization problem with Windows. we hope to
resolve this problem quickly
