[New-bugs-announce] [issue6099] HTTP/1.1 with keep-alive support for xmlrpclib.ServerProxy

[Kristján Valur Jónsson]

New submission from Kristján Valur Jónsson <kristjan at ccpgames.com>:

The Transport class in xmlrpclib.py was using the old httplib.HTTP 
class.
This patch brings xmlrpclib up to date to use the HTTPConnection and 
HTTPSConnection classes.  This allows xlmrpclib.ServerProxy to use 
HTTP/1.1 with keep-alive on
servers that support it.

Note that this patch benefits from recent optimizations of 
HTTPConnection reducing the Nagle problem.

This is a separate patch from http://bugs.python.org/issue1767370 and in 
my opinion much simpler.
