So, two options for people to show support for. One is to keep everything and get cute with the naming::
urlparse -> url.parse urllib -> url.fetch urllib2 -> url.request
The second option is to ditch urllib, move the handy quoting tools into either their own module or into what is currently urllib2::
urlparse -> url.parse urllib -> GONE urllib's utility functions -> url.quote urllib2 -> url.request
+1 for the second option. I'd also be happy if there were fewer than 3 modules in the package, but mainly I'd like to see urllib gone with urllib2 in its place.
Agreed, +1 for ditching urllib. Quentin
