[Baypiggies] HTTP date format

Is there a _simple_ way of formatting a date/time (in any of the
representations native to the Python standard library) in the format
specified by RFC 7231 [1]?

I do not consider an implementation simple if it contains its own lists
of day and month names, such as [2] does.

At some point, I will have to parse the format as well.
