[Zope] ZopeDate weiredness again

[Alexandre Ratti]

Hi Joachim,


If you want to display a date in a non-GMT format you cannot easily use 
fmt="%d.%m.%Y". These format code are all GMT-based.

<dtml-with ZopeTime>
  <dtml-var "'%s/%s/%i - %s' % (dd(), mm(), year(), TimeMinutes())">
</dtml-with>

displays the correct date and time (in French format) on my box.
