New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pitrou@free.fr>: The urllib.request documentation intermingles old 2.x urllib (FancyURLopener, etc.) with urllib2-inherited (*Handler, build_opener, etc.) primitives without making any distinction. This makes it rather confusing for the reader to figure out which ones to use. Ideally, the use of the old primitives should also be discouraged. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 118179 nosy: docs@python, orsenthil, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: urllib.request documentation confusing versions: Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10048> _______________________________________
