Nick Coghlan added the comment: Reopening this - rewording the issue title to cover the problem to be solved (i.e. accounting for RFC 6598 addresses) rather than a specific solution (which isn't appropriate, since the RFC *explicitly* states that shared addresses and private addresses aren't the same thing)
It seems to me that the simplest solution would be to use the terminology from RFC 6598 and add a new "is_shared" attribute to addresses. ---------- resolution: rejected -> status: closed -> open title: ipaddress.is_private needs to take into account of rfc6598 -> ipaddress should make it easy to identify rfc6598 addresses _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17400> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
