I added this to the view to test some more

check_for_language("nl")
activate("nl")

and then the dates are formatted correctly and they accept the input as they should.
By checking LANGUAGE_CODE in my template, I can even make the jquery datepicker do the right thing.

Still, how come that this doesn't work before I activate the language myself?
I specified a DEFAULT_LANGUAGE and LANGUAGE_CODE in my settings, yet it only accepts the
belgian/dutch dates after I activate the language manually.

Isn't the default language as specified in the settings activated by default?
