Right, there are two functions to get the date in UTC or local
time zone:

val local_date_of_day : Lang.t -> string;;
 (* Return the current date as a string according to the [lang] argument.
    Assumes the local time zone. *)

val date_of_day : Lang.t -> string;;
 (* Return the current date as a string according to the [lang] argument.
    Assumes Greenwich meridian time zone, also known as UTC. *)

A time_zone type definition with a convertion function would be a
useful addition (to gether with date zone handling).
