Why you don't have a look at the documentation, that's always the first thing you should do: Working with Dates and Times.

So with Zend_Locale_Format you can normalize and convert date and time for different locale.

E.g. you can normalize a data by locale like this:

  $locale = new Zend_Locale('de_AT');

  $date = Zend_Locale_Format::getDate('13.04.2005 22:14:55',
                                       array('date_format' =>
                                           Zend_Locale_Format::STANDARD,
                                       'locale' => $locale)   
  );

Hope that helps ;) . So this is the answer I got from him: you should have a look at WebCal.
