[Bug localedata/5814] bad time format for Finnish fi_FI locale


------- Additional Comments From hhaamu at gmail dot com  2008-03-04 10:00 -------
The national standard is SFS 4175, a copy of which is only available for a fee:
http://www.sfs.fi/luettelo/sfs.php?standard=SFS+4175

The national broadcasting corporation's news page: http://www.yle.fi/uutiset/
Timetables from the parliament:

This is quite embarrassing, I can't actually find many newspapers' web sites
which use H.mm

http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/kielenopas/5.2.html#klo (an unofficial language
guide) refers to the SFS standard and mentions:
"in practice the colon is used a lot [...] slightly clearer than the full stop
[...] this markup can be recommended for multilingual documents." He goes on
using the full stop and colon interchangeably.

I'll see if I can find anything else if more is needed.
