<para>
The boost::date_time library provides the ability to create customized locale facets. Date ordering, language, seperators, and abbreviations can be customized.

<!-- <para>
This example uses the new (as of 1.33) date_time IO code. An example using the old code is also provided to demonstrate how much easier customized output is (see <link linkend="date_time.examples.legacy_localization">legacy_localization example</link>).
