Anyone who _wants_ that is already intentionally violating the http protocol which defeats the entire purpose of our library and the parameter named "url". Will this break something in the world other than our own test_xmlrpc test? Probably. Do they have a right to complain about it? Not one we need listen to. Such code is doing something that was clearly an abuse of the API. The parameter was named url not raw_data_to_stuff_subversively_into_the_binary_protocol. Its intent was clear. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue30458> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
