Skip Montanaro s...@pobox.com added the comment:
I suspect that was a conscious decision. Back when it was first written
urllib2 was supposed to eventually replace urllib I think. Dunno if
that's still true, but if so I could see why this feature wasn't added
to urllib.urlopen.

New submission from Senthil orsent...@gmail.com:
Just noticed this while fixing another bug issue5102.
Need to figure out why urllib.urlopen does not have timeout in the first
account and if it was due to some overlook, then:
1) add timeout parameter to urllib.urlopen
2) propage it across
