Martin Panter added the comment: FYI I posted a patch at Issue 22852 to retain the empty netloc “//” when appropriate. But even if there is interest in that patch, I guess it can still only be applied to the next version of Python (3.5 or whatever), being a new feature.
Maybe you could suggest some wording or a patch to the documentation that could be applied to bugfix releases as well. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23505> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
