have a look at the wiki[1]:
| Be aware: as the php function date() is not capable of localisation
| you have no chance to get local named times (weekday, month)
|
| Since Feb 2013 the functionality of this viewhelper is extended: you
| can use strftime-format-strings (recognized by the usage of '%' in
| the format-string) and use localisation for weekdays and month.
