Hi Alex,
I know that the DateFormat class is for formatting a date. I just wondered
why only the local representation of the date can be formatted, not the UTC
representation. It would be nice if you could get a formatted UTC
representation of the date by using a format string like "dd.MM.yyyy"
instead of having to build a date string manually like d.getUTCDate() + "."
+ d.getUTCMonth() + ...
