Location on CTAN: macros/latex/contrib/isodate/ License: LPPL

From the README:

Tune the output format of dates.

This package provides ten output formats of the commands oday, printdate, printdateTeX, and daterange (partly language dependent): ISO (yyyy-mm-dd), numeric (e.g. dd.,mm.~yyyy), short (e.g. dd.,mm.,yy), TeX (yyyy/mm/dd), original (e.g. dd. mmm yyyy), short original (e.g. dd. mmm yy), as well as numerical formats with Roman numerals for the month.

The commands printdate and printdateTeX print any date. The date is given as an argument using the actual date format for output: printdate{yyyy-mm-dd}, printdate{dd.mm.yyyy}, or printdate{dd/mm/yyyy}, and printdateTeX{yyyy/mm/dd}.

The command daterange prints a date range and leaves out unnecessary year or month entries. E.g. 2000-05-03 to 2000-05-08 leads to `2000-05-03 to 08'.

ChangeLog:

2005/03/11 v2.27 Harald Harders (h.harders@tu-bs.de) - Add option british.

Thanks for the update.
