There should also be a way to set the default Language and Date Format for each user, as well as the timezone.
It sounds like a good idea to take the timezone from the NS 
Yes @giacomo, you can use these:
INSERT INTO “core”.“settings” (“service_id”, “key”, “value”) VALUES (‘com.sonicle.webtop.core’, ‘default.i18n.languageTag’, {LANGUAGE_TAG});
where {LANGUAGE_TAG} must be one of the following: ‘en_EN’, ‘it_IT’, ‘es_ES’
INSERT INTO “core”.“settings” (“service_id”, “key”, “value”) VALUES (‘com.sonicle.webtop.core’, ‘default.i18n.timezone’, {TIMEZONE});
where {TIMEZONE} must be a valid Java timezone string (like ‘Europe/Rome’)
INSERT INTO “core”.“settings” (“service_id”, “key”, “value”) VALUES (‘com.sonicle.webtop.core’, ‘default.i18n.startDay’, {START_DAY});
where {START_DAY} must be one of the following: ‘0’ for Sunday, ‘1’ for Monday
INSERT INTO “core”.“settings” (“service_id”, “key”, “value”) VALUES (‘com.sonicle.webtop.core’, ‘default.i18n.format.date.short’, {DATE_FORMAT_SHORT});
where {DATE_FORMAT_SHORT} must be one of the following: ‘dd/MM/yyyy’, ‘dd-MM-yyyy’, ‘yyyy-MM-dd’, ‘MM/dd/yyyy’, ‘MM-dd-yyyy’, ‘MM.dd.yyyy’
INSERT INTO “core”.“settings” (“service_id”, “key”, “value”) VALUES (‘com.sonicle.webtop.core’, ‘default.i18n.format.date.long’, {DATE_FORMAT_LONG});
where {DATE_FORMAT_LONG} must be one of the following: ‘dd MMM yyyy’, ‘dd MMMM yyyy’, ‘MMM dd, yyyy’, ‘MMMM dd, yyyy’
INSERT INTO “core”.“settings” (“service_id”, “key”, “value”) VALUES (‘com.sonicle.webtop.core’, ‘default.i18n.format.time.short’, {TIME_FORMAT_SHORT});
where {TIME_FORMAT_SHORT} must be one of the following: ‘HH:mm’, ‘h:mm a’
INSERT INTO “core”.“settings” (“service_id”, “key”, “value”) VALUES (‘com.sonicle.webtop.core’, ‘default.i18n.format.time.long’, {TIME_FORMAT_LONG});
where {TIME_FORMAT_LONG} must be one of the following: ‘HH:mm:ss’, ‘h:mm:ss a’

Where is the list of Java-supported time zones? How can I check if the system time zone is also a valid Java time zone?
All these options are usually grouped inside the locale concept:
- LANGUAGE
- START_DAY
- DATE_FORMAT_LONG
- DATE_FORMAT_SHORT
- TIME_FORMAT_SHORT
- TIME_FORMAT_LONG
Usually when setting the locale, the application should be able to set all formats accordingly.
IMHO WebTop should respect this convention but I don’t if such a feature exists in Java (see the PHP example PHP: setlocale - Manual).
Honestly I don’t see any simple way to achieve this at rpm level.
For sure I can set the language, @matteo.albinola how can I retrieve the list of supported languages?
If there isn’t a way to get this list, I rather prefer leave WebTop configured with English default.
Are WebTop defaults already good for English people or defaults are targeted for Italians?
Unfortunately i’m not able to find a link that provides a list of valid timezone IDs for Java.
So i've generated this...

I think that Java can support it but we cannot completely automate this process due to date/time formats compatibility between Java and ExtJs.
At this time there is no link between language files in each service and platform supported languages, so we aren’t able to provide a list. Italian (it_IT) and english (en_EN) are the only languages supported for sure. I think we will improve this connection in future releases.
Default are tailored for italians so for now i suggest you to use those inserts to create a configuration set valid for english people.
If the NS timezone is used, what will happen to users that are in a different timezone than the NS is situated?
This would mean that timezone for WebTop should be on a per user basis.
It’s already configured per-users.
We should change only the default value. Right now, the default is Europe/Rome which is not good 
As we say in Italy : “all roads lead to Rome”

A new RPM is available in nethserver-testing.
New defaults are:
- English locale
- UTC timezone
List available locales: /etc/e-smith/events/actions/nethserver-webtop5-locale-tz
List available timezones: JAVA_HOME=/usr/share/webtop/ java ListTimeZones
More info at:

OK!
Thank you all!

Hi @giacomo, is this command working now?
I’m obtaining this:
[root@testing ~]# JAVA_HOME=/usr/share/webtop/ java ListTimeZones
Error: Could not find or load main class ListTimeZones
EDIT: for now I used this: java -classpath /usr/share/webtop/ ListTimeZones

Question…
Can a default TimeZone and location be set to LDAP retrieved group?
