    While trying to use clockingit from source, I ran into this error:
    <code>
    can't modify frozen array
    #{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/localization.rb:38:in `replace'
    #{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/localization.rb:38:in `translate_strings'
    #{RAILS_ROOT}/lib/localization.rb:31:in `lang'
    #{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers/application.rb:59:in `authorize'
    </code>

    I'm not familiar at all with ruby, so this was a pain to figure out. However, I believe the problem is in the system's date.rb (/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/date.rb for me), line 252:

    <code>
    [MONTHNAMES, DAYNAMES, ABBR_MONTHNAMES, ABBR_DAYNAMES].each do |xs|
    xs.each{|x| x.freeze}.freeze
    end
    </code>

    For now, I've commented this out in my system's date.rb. However, there should be a solution that can be implemented in clockingit's source.

    Any ideas how?

    Ho hum... That's a bugger...

    I guess it should be possible to override the strftime function of Date, like I do with Time, and use local arrays instead of replacing the ones in the Date class. I'll see if I get the time to have a go at it tonight.
