@kmoe Thanks for digging in and finding the reference to the RFCs.  

So they added a restriction to use dashes and only GMT for timezone. 
Interesting.

I also found the reason Cloudant's documentation has other date format. It was 
generated prior to this commit:

https://github.com/mochi/mochiweb/commit/5e682defe214f8f18559a1422843bfb5f637ba68

Noticed in that commit the web server CouchDB uses was switched to generate 
cookies in  RFC 2109 format from the RFC 1123 one. Don't know the context as it 
happened 7 years ago.

I'll pass along the request to update the docs, thanks again!
