And so you are objecting to having a socket package with the ssl module in it because there used to be a socket.ssl or somehow the SSL code was part of the socket module?
If you look at 2.6, you'll see that using the old "socket.ssl" is now deprecated, to shift over to the new top-level ssl module. Would be max confusing to shift back to the bad old ssl module. In addition, this ruins the porting scheme we worked out, which is to be able to deploy the new shiny ssl module in parallel with the old bad socket.ssl module.
Yeah, that kills it. Plus socket.socket.socket is just too unreasonable to allow. Damn, that's really too bad. -Brett
