Hi,

1) Force the user to use 24-hour clock by simply translating it to "%H:%M", or
2) use the imprecise "%l:%M", or
3) retain the alien "%l:%M %p"?
In any case it shouldn't be 1. If someone requests time in 12hrs
format and sees "14:37", they will think it's a bug and they'd be
right. I'd still go with 3 as it's the one fitting the original
version the most and %p could in some cases even be translated
(replacing "am" with something like "in the morning).
