I have these questions:

... Well, if you really think the current "Fri Jul" output is too English, instead of localizing the string, how about we de-localize it totally and choose a neutral format?

Excellent idea!

There are several flavors of ISO date/time format at

http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime or we can just choose YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss zzz BTW, the jar command is using the same format ...

Changing the jarsigner command to use the same format as the jar command makes the most sense to me.
