Description Jorge Guerrero 2009-06-22 20:35:57 UTC

The Locale for Colombia "es_CO" uses the 24 hour format for this
country, that time format is not the appropriate for Colombia, the
notation should be a 12 hour clock.
To confirm that the right notation is a 12 hour clock I add the folowing
links in which is stated that the correct time notation for Colombia is a 12
hour clock.

WAITING means waiting for reporter's feedback, which is not what you meant I
assume. ;-)
