[New-bugs-announce] [issue16531] Allow IPNetwork to take a tuple

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou:

I am in a situation where I'm building an IPNetwork from separate address and mask information. So roughly I'd like to write either:

 addr = IPAddress('192.168.0.0')
 network = IPNetwork((addr, '255.255.0.0'))

or

 addr = '192.168.0.0'
 network = IPNetwork((addr, '255.255.0.0'))

Of course it seems like this would be equivalent to:

 network = IPNetwork('%s/%s' % (addr, '255.255.0.0.'))

(but more user-friendly :-))
