Yeah, but "parts of" is not the question. I've read the PEP, and I do *not* know how to implement it. That means it's not a trivial module, so that argument doesn't hold up here, even if we accept it as valid (which I actually don't). I don't think any module in the stdlib is entirely trivial. Yes, even parsing an URL is non-trivial, as shown by the fact that the urlparse module apparently has a bug in it for urls like svn+ssh://foo.bar/frotz. ;-) Also, even trivial modules can be useful if you use them a lot. > How would you define "very short"?
