AFAIK, jForum doesn't directly use the Locale object.
For setting a default language, you need to set the i18n.board.default config property to the default language you want.
It does use the Locale indirectly. It uses SimpleDateFormat in combination with the dateTime.format property. This class uses the default JVM locale to translate times.
So if you want dates to reflect a specific locale, you need to tell the jForum JVM to use the desired locale as a default.
