Daniele Sluijters added the comment: The link you mention only deals with the DNS side of things, this issue is specifically not about that, it's about the URI/URL side of things which is a very important distinction in this case.
I'm also not entirely sure I agree with the sentiment of "it's a mess anyway" so lets ignore the RFC. There's an RFC for a reason and if more implementations started to behave accordingly the mess would clear itself up instead of becoming even more of a nightmare. I can agree with the practical over strict approach though. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19451> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
