Hi

ZOPE newbie alert:

I am trying to get ZOPE to publish dates in UK format. I am fine with 
getting todays date formatted as required by calling a dtml-var, but 
the problem is with putting up 'future-static' dates such as the example
in the Content Managers Guide, where you want to do something like 
"This site will go live on..." using 'expected_date' which is a 
property with type date. This automatically formats 20 June 2000 to 
2000/06/20 and I can't figure out how to change it.

Any ideas welcome!
