Title:
  GNOME clock displays improper date format for US/EN locale

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-desktop3 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-desktop3 source package in Trusty:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've actually noticed this for some time and decided to file a bug
  report in hopes of getting this fixed by 16.04 (or sooner).

  In the standard GNOME desktop (with US/EN locale set) the date in the
  clock displays day of week, day of month, month before the time rather
  than day of week, month, day of month - eg; Mon 13 Apr, 8:06 PM rather
  than Mon Apr 13, 8:06 PM.

  The proper format is used both in the screen-lock and the Date & Time
  settings dialog (see screenshot).

  This also effects the clock applet in gnome-panel as of Vivid,
  possibly it's now following g-s-d rather than u-s-d?
