Package: python2.5-doc Version: 2.5.2-1 Severity: wishlist Hello,
thanks for maintaining python. The urllib documentation mentions: "Proxies which require authentication for use are not currently supported; this is considered an implementation limitation." What it fails to mention is that proxies which require authentication work perfectly with urllib2. A link there (like "This functionality is implemented in _urllib2_") would turn the phrase from a "you can't do it" into a "you can do it this way".
