Fix CFP close date missing the month#141

Conversation
The homepage key-facts bar showed "31 2026" instead of "31 July 2026" for the CFP closing date. Root cause: the site locale was "en-IE", whose CLDR dataset in Hugo lacks abbreviated month names. Any abbreviated month format (e.g. "Jan") rendered an empty string. "en-GB" has the same gap. - hugo.toml: set locale to "en" so both abbreviated and full month formats work, keeping English with day/month ordering - layouts/index.html: use "2 January 2006" for the CFP close date, matching the format already used on the CFP and key-questions pages

Problem
On the homepage key-facts bar, the CFP closing date rendered as
31 2026(with the month missing) instead of31 July 2026.Root cause
The site
localewas set toen-IE, whose CLDR dataset bundled with Hugo is missing abbreviated month names. As a result, any abbreviated month format token (e.g.Jan) renders an empty string.en-GBhas the same gap;enanden-USwork correctly.Changes
hugo.toml: changelocalefromen-IEtoen, so both abbreviated and full month formats work. Stays English with day/month ordering (the order is enforced by the Go layout string, not the locale).layouts/index.html: use"2 January 2006"for the CFP close date, consistent with the format already used on the CFP and key-questions pages.Verification
After the fix the homepage renders
closes 31 July 2026and the CFP page rendersOpens 25 May 2026/Deadline 31 July 2026.
