'international' only affects the format for parsing dates as far as I
can recall. Using strftime() gives you full control over the output
format. Your application should not rely on the default format. If you
need a custom date output format then define it explicitly in your
application.

Thanks Andreas - so there is no way to set a date format at an
intermediate layer so that all dates are rendered a certain way without
string formatting? Am I naive in thinking this could possibly be done at
the db adapter level?
Thanks
