Luke Plant <l.plant...@cantab.net> added the comment: I forgot to mention backwards compatibility:
In the context of Cookie being used in a web application, if developers were relying on literal commas and semi-colons being present in the client side cookie value (e.g. in javascript), the patch will introduce an incompatibility. A quick review of cookies on my computer shows that 22 out of 3079 have commas in them, and none have semi-colons in them. For those with commas, there would still only be a problem if they were reading them client side, or not using Python's Cookie library to decode the values server side. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9824> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
