[GeoNetwork-users] NEW Greek localization for DHTML calendar

Seeing that GeoNetwork 2.6.4 is apparently still using the old version
of the DHTML calendar for its metadata editor, which is not mantained
any longer ( http://www.dynarch.com/projects/calendar/old/ ), this
created some problems with localization.

I am currently working on a complete localization of the ISO19139 xml
schema, and stumbled upon an error where I couldn't get the calendar
to pop up in date fields.
After debugging with Firebug and Chrome, I located the culprit in a
malformed localization file under the [GEONETWORK
FOLDER]\web\geonetwork\scripts\calendar\lang directory.

The old calendar-el.js file is malformed and lacks the WEEKEND field,
which causes the script to break up at load time, plus other
omissions.

I therefore created a new localization, which works like a charm and
doesn't break the metadata editor. I attach this as a courtesy to the
community as the "classic" official DHTML calendar project is
currently unmaintained.

I hope that this will be of some help to any localizators in the
future, and it will be included in future releases of GeoNetwork.
