I think, adding a deprecation cycle might just delay this change. So, I would prefer if we make it in the 3.2 itself. - This is not a user-facing API change and I did not see any references where people relied upon this behavior. (No bugs / usage cases) - It is actually a bug, because one may not be sure if the ftp service is running the machine in the first place and user may not intend that ftp service be used for accessing local resources. We had python-dev discussion on this sometime back when fixing another bug and conclusion was that we raise a ValueError when file:// scheme was used in non-local url. Instead of ValueError, I think the generic URLError is okay too. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10063> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
