One correction: only month-names change should be reverted. Two-letter
weekday names are OK.

Title:
  Month names in Russian Localization should be in lowercase

Status in The GNU C Library:
  Fix Released
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Fix Released
Status in “langpack-locales” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Panel clock shows date for Russian locale in the following format:
  "Втр, 10 Июл, 00:31". It is not right.

  1. According to Russian writing practice, month names are not
  capitalized. So if month name doesn't stay in the beginning of the
  sentence, its first letter should not be capital (for example: "10
  июля" or "10 июл" for abbreviation).

  2. 3 letter abbreviations for weekdays are very rare in Russian. It is
  better to use 2 letters (Пн, Вт, Ср, Чт, Пт, Сб, Вс).
