Translate meridiem in time

[Sewar]

This patches Translate meridiem in time.

I don't know if meridiem is good word for this thing, I just copied it from ​PHP's manual: date() function.

looks good to me.

We could really do with wrapping all these localisation globals up into one associative array or class global. So e.g. instead of doing

global $meridiem, $weekday;
...
$meridiem
...
$weekday

we'd do

$global $wp_i10n;
...
$wp_i10n->meridiem
...
$wp_i10n->weekday

patch for WP_Locale class

davidhouse: Good idea, i've create new patch.

Please test the new patch especially functions in "wp-includes/template-functions-general.php" because i haven't test most of them.

Wow, great job. I'll check it out. People should test this because I'm an english speaker and so am not too great at checking that localisation functions work :)

match changes in [3654] and fix some errors in admin files.

davidhouse: I hope someone post it to wp-hackers and/or wp-polyglots mail lists.

wp_locale.3654.diff is updated version to match changes in [3654] and fix some errors in admin files.

Your patch looks great except for the fact that you removed the legacy variables. Put them back in and I think we're good to go.

Great job.

Oops, I forget add admin-functions.php to patch, it contain patch for edit timestamp in post/page editing.

Isn't it is ready for commit?

Provide support for legacy and it is ready.

abhay: Sorry, i wasn't understand your first comment, i put them back.

Looks great

+1 to commit.

We could take it a step further and replace this:

$wp_locale->month[zeroise($arc_month, 2)]

with this:

$wp_locale->get_month($arc_month);

get_month() should handle doing the zeroise and fetching from the month array. Similarly for the rest of the locale data.

ryan: Good idea, test the new patch and if it's ready commit it.

(In [3676]) WP_Locale. Props Sewar. fixes #2568
