Hello,

I would like to remove HTTP 0.9 support from http.client and
http.server. I've opened an issue at http://bugs.python.org/issue10711
for that. Would anyone think it's a bad idea?

(HTTP 1.0 was devised in 1996)
Please address the following comment from the server.py source:

      # The default request version.  This only affects responses up until
      # the point where the request line is parsed, so it mainly decides what
      # the client gets back when sending a malformed request line.
      # Most web servers default to HTTP 0.9, i.e. don't send a status line.
      default_request_version = "HTTP/0.9"
What do you mean by "address"? The patch changes this to 1.0.
And, as the comment says, this only affects what happens when the
client sends a syntactically invalid request line, so whether the server
does a 0.9-style or 1.0-style response is unimportant.

Just what you did... justify the unimportance of not changing it :) Since now it is different than "most web servers".
