[Baypiggies] HTTP date format

[Alex Young]

Something like this?

class GMT(tzinfo):
    def tzname(self, dt):
        return "GMT"

    def utcoffset(self, dt):
        return timedelta(0)

    def dst(self, dt):
        return timedelta(0)

datetime(1994, 11, 6, 8, 49, 37, 0, GMT()).strftime('%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S
%Z')

'Sun, 06 Nov 1994 08:49:37 GMT'
