O.R.Senthil Kumaran is working on numerous updates of urllib2.py, urlparse.py, and cgi.py for the Google Summer of Code: http://code.google.com/soc/2007/psf/appinfo.html?csaid=E73A6612F80229B6 http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2007-June/073619.html http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2007-June/073635.html He may have bitten off more than he can chew, IMO; backward compatibility and the demands of flexible APIs may make his life rather difficult: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2007-March/072330.html As I mention at the end of that post: ".,.you might also check the python-dev discussion of urllib in Sep 2004, urlparse in Nov 2005, and the competing uriparse.py proposals (Apr, Jun 2006)."
