    If you would like to get a date formatted in a different locale than default, you can get it in this way:

    $CMS_VALUE(#global.now.format("EEEE d MMMM yyyy", "en"))$

    Output:

    Friday 2 July 2010

    Date format without locale:

    $CMS_VALUE(#global.now.format("EEEE d MMMM yyyy"))$

    Output:

    Freitag 2 Juli 2010

      Where "default locale" is the locale of the currently generated language...

      And avoid #global.now, Melanie is using it here just exemplary.

      Use #global.startTime which is constant over the generation process and can be mapped to a revision.
