Done. Or may be HTTP/HTTPS? https://bugs.python.org/review/26889/diff/17111/Doc/library/xmlrpc.client.rs... Doc/library/xmlrpc.client.rst:49: On 2016/05/06 20:36:41, terry.reedy wrote:

New blank line separates instance construction parameters above from instance use parameters. Good. I think you could even something like "The following parameters govern the use of the returned proxy instance."

New link displays page with "Wayback Machine doesn't have that page archived." Is any more description really needed? Can you just incorporate it?

Not sure that deletion of sentence is an improvement. See tracker

Rietveld included closing parenthesis in the link. Correct link: https://web.archive.org/web/20130120074804/http://ontosys.com/xml-rpc/extens... All resources (including Wikipedia) refer to this link. There is no more "official" document. Apache provided longer list of extension types (see issue26885), but this project is half-dead too. https://bugs.python.org/review/26889/diff/17111/Doc/library/xmlrpc.client.rs...

In Python 3 there is no difference between types and classes (I suppose user-defined classic classes were meant here). ServerProxy instance methods can't take or return types. They work with instances of specific types. And if we left just "Python objects", what other this can be? In Python everything is an object, and every value is a Python object. I was unable to reformulate this sentence correctly and preferred to remove it. https://bugs.python.org/review/26889/
