Except that you are not because all the GMT-8 time zones are 
currently observing one hour of DST (except Pitcairn Island, which I

I think they are DateTime objects so you could write a little Python 
script to return the string you want. <b 
tal:replace="here/bobobase_modification_time/myTimeFormat"/> or 
something.
