Rails - Aug 2009 - List of localized months

I''m trying to print a list of localized month names in my rails app. I
set my locale to it-IT, created an it-IT.yml translation file with the
translated month names, but it doesn''t seem to work.

When I use date_select I can see the trasnlated months, therefore my yml
file and my locale should be ok, but when I try something like
Date.new(2008).strftime("%B") or Date::MONTHNAMES i always get the
english month names.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance

Date''s strftime & Date''s MONTHNAME constants just
aren''t localized
(I18n.localize has a localized strftime for you)
