AB_FIELD_firstName = First |
Yes, these should be translated. If you look in ZmContact.
js, you'll see that they are used for labels in contact tooltips, etc.

You should definitely change these values to make the formats appropriate for the locale.
The date/time/number/etc formats used in the product are identical to the ones Java provides when they format messages in various locales. For dates and times, Java provides four standard lengths for formatting: short, medium, long, and full. However, in the Zimbra product there are other formats that we need (e.g. the day and month WITHOUT the year). Hence, we needed to add our own custom patterns to the AjxMsg.properties file.
To figure out what the stuff like "MMM" and "yyyy" means, please refer to the JavaDoc for the java.text.SimpleDateFormat class.
