[New-bugs-announce] [issue3959] Add Google's ipaddr.py to the stdlib

[Guido van Rossum]

New submission from Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org>:

Google just released ipaddr.py, a module that knows how to manipulate IP
addresses (both IPv4 and IPv6).

I have nothing to do with this module, but I suggest considering it for
inclusion in the standard library.

It fills a gap for address manipulations that will become more important
to fill as IPv6 becomes more widespread.
