my upload daemon tells me that Nicola Talbot wrote:

Name of contribution: datetime Name and email: Nicola Talbot <...> Suggested location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/other Summary description: Changes format of oday. Provides commands for current time. License type: Generic DFSG

Announcement text:

The package datetime.sty provides various different formats for the command oday, and also provides commands for displaying the current time, either in 12hr, 24hr or text format. In addition, there are macros for displaying the value of LaTeX counter as an ordinal (e.g. ordinal{page} would print 3rd if the current value of page is 3, and ordinalstring{page} would print third) as well as macros for displaying the value of LaTeX counter as a string (e.g.

umberstring{page} would print three).

Since version 1.1, the command hedate has been changed to formatdate to avoid name clashes with some class files.

thanks for the upload; i've replaced the older version, as requested.
