WifiScanner Tutorial fails when android-locale is German

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Change language of phone to German (a lot other languages might be possible, 
important feature of the locale: the decimal separator has to be a ",")
2. Launch WifiScanner
3. Observe continous messages of WifiScanner dying

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The Action should come up, instead messages inform of dying App.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Android 4.3 on Nexus 4, compiled as provided with Android 4.2.2 and Funf v4.2 
and gson v2.1

Please provide any additional information below.
See the log file attached with the dump information. The problem is caused due 
to number-representation problems inside BasicPipeline.writeDate (line 142): 
the German system-locale will print the number with a "," as decimal separator, 
which when creating the SQLite INSERT string makes it believe to be a column 
separator.

I had a look into the code, storage/NameValueDatabaseHelper.java seems to be 
responsible for the creation of the insert line, which is:

db.execSQL(String.format(Locale.US, "insert into %s (%s, %s, %s, %s) values 
('%s', '%s', '%s', %f)", ... )

This is getting strange...

Hm, what's the status on this issue? I dont' see a new 0.4.x version. I'm about 
to start developing an app based on funf on a German Nexus 4. Would be good to 
know if I should better not do that since the WifiScanner is quite important..

In case anybody is still wondering, I simply tried it out now and didn't 
experience any issues with Wifi-scans on a German Nexus 4. I don't know if it 
depends on the device or if it has been fixed somehow.
