[issue24357] www.python.org lost IPv6 connectivity
New submission from Paul Marks: Python's web servers were formerly reachable from IPv6 clients, as evidenced by this example code for socket.getaddrinfo(): https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.getaddrinfo But today, www.python.org is IPv4-only:
Please either restore IPv6 connectivity to www.python.org, or accept the shame and defeat of pointing the documentation to someone else's domain. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 244625 nosy: Paul Marks, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: www.python.org lost IPv6 connectivity _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24357> _______________________________________
Ned Deily added the comment: Thanks for the report. According to the PSF Infrastructure Team, www.python.org currently does not support IPv6 because the Content Delivery Network that we now use does not support it yet. One Python URL that does support IPv6:
socket.getaddrinfo("hg.python.org", 80, proto=socket.IPPROTO_TCP) [(<AddressFamily.AF_INET6: 10>, <SocketType.SOCK_STREAM: 1>, 6, '', ('2001:4802:7901:0:e60a:1375:0:4', 80, 0, 0)), (<AddressFamily.AF_INET: 2>, <SocketType.SOCK_STREAM: 1>, 6, '', ('104.130.43.97', 80))]
