Hi, Sometimes, for an unknown reason, test_nntplib fails randomly: http://bugs.python.org/issue19613 Martin Panter wrote a patch, but since I don't know how to reproduce the bug, I'm unable to test it. Moreover, I don't know nntplib nor test_nntplib, so I don't feel able to review it. Sadly, Martin doesn't feel confident enough in his patch neither, since again, he is unable to test it. As a result, the issue is stuck and the bug continues to occur sometimes on buildbots. Victor
