Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: Senthil, do you read python-dev? I think this change was prematurate from the start (nevermind the fact that you didn't run the test suite before committing).
For example, if you have an URL with a non-ASCII domain name such as "http://وزارة-الأتصالات.مصر/", the domain name should IDNA-encoded, not %-encoded like the rest. Furthermore, some people are certainly already quoting their URLs to workaround this issue, so "fixing" it will break their code by double-escaping the URLs. You've got to be more careful. ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14826> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
