Pushed a new version which I believe adresses all of these. I added an example of opting-out with urllib.urlopen, let me know if there's any other APIs you think I should show an example with.

The PEP doesn't specify any of the API changes for Python 2.7. I feel it is necessary for the PEP to show a few typical code snippets using urllib in Python 2.7 and how one would modify these in order to disable the cert checking.

There are also a few typos; especially this paragraph puzzled me:

This will be acheived by adding a new ``ssl._create_default_https_context``
function, which is the same as ``ssl.create_default``. ``http.client`` can then
replace it's usage of ``ssl._create_stdlib_context`` with the new
``ssl._create_default_https_context``.

(1) spelling: it's achieved, not achieved

(2) method name: it's ssl.create_default_context, not ssl.create_default

(3) There's not enough whitespace (in the rendered HTML on legacy.python.org) before http.client -- I kept reading it as "... which is the same as ssl.create_default.http.client ..."

(4) There's no mention of the Python 2 equivalent of http.client.

Finally, it's kind of non-obvious in the PEP that this affects Python 2.7.X (I guess the one after the next) as well as 3.4 and 3.5.

Hi all,

I've just updated the PEP to reflect the API suggestions from Nick, and the
fact that the necessary changes to urllib were landed.

I think this is ready for pronouncement, Guido?

Cheers,
Alex
