I have in my TODO list an item that says "put timout to urllib2.urlopen". I once digged in urllib2, trying to figure out something, and in a lightning shock I understood it. I took a look at it again a few weeks ago, but this time wasn't able to follow it, :(. Anyway, I'll check it once again, hope to understand it, and try to came up with a patch to be able to call urllib2.urlopen with "timeout" parameter, for all its protocols. Regards, -- . Facundo .
