A java.util.Date will always have a time component because it is represented as the number of seconds since 1970.
The UTCDateBox normalizes that time component to midnight in GMT so that it will work in all timezones. The DateBox does not normalize the time component so the Date in the DateBox will depend on the timezone. As I understood, this is his problem and this is the reason we created the UTCDateBox.
