you mean ISO format, right?
the easiest way is probably to use the time.strptime module to parse the
original string into a time tuple, and then use time.strftime to format
the tuple as an ISO date:
>>> s = "Dec 06, 2000"
>>> t = time.strptime(s, "%b %d, %Y")
>>> t
(2000, 12, 6, 0, 0, 0, 2, 341, -1)
>>> time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d", t)
'2000-12-06'
