currently, Yii's date/time localization functionalities is just a formatter in a locale-sensitive manner.
it would be nice to add locale specific calendars, any calendar supported by ICU (e.g. gregorian, persian, islamic, ...).


as IntlDateFormatter is out there as part of php 5.3+, I thing it's easy to integrate Yii's date/time localization with it.




this post is reentered because it's so important for internationalization and yii should be consider new php feature in the next major release.
so some one give a clear explanation to us about this in the Yii 2.0

php's intl extension has been included in the standard download for a long time. intl is interfaces to ICU. and ICU is the balls. Yii is the balls too so YiiII should use ICU via intl.
