Contributing patches (was Re: urllib and proxy)

[Andy Gimblett]

Earlier on today I posted to this list a modified urlopen() which
supports proxy specification.  How do I go about suggesting this as a
modification to the standard python library?

I've seen these:
    http://www.python.org/download/cvs.html
    http://www.python.org/patches/

and they seem to suggest that I can just use my existing SourceForge
account and submit a patch to the patch manager, and I presume then
someone examines it, decides if it's a good thing or not, and checks
it in or rejects it?

Is this how it works?

Just thought I'd ask here before blundering in.

Cheers,

Andy
