[Thomas Wouters, dispensing good CVS advice]

... Just commit your new testurllib.py directly, when it's all done, using something like

cvs commit -r2.0 testurllib.py But you probably want to discuss the version number you want to force, Guido might like to reserve 2.0 for something (although I think he should use '3000' instead :)

That part I didn't grok: why force an artifical version number? I can't imagine a use for that. The "Rewrote from scratch." checkin comment Brett will surely make is milestone enough in the CVS log.
