I have a module that I'd like to get included in Python 2.4. It adds transparent HTTP cookie handling to urllib2

Although I haven't looked at your code, I think the functionality would be a good addition to Python. Brett's right though, it needs (Python style) documentation and unit tests.

I wonder if it makes sense to combine the functionality of Cookie.py and cookielib.py? Perhaps not, but at the very least I'd like to see something like this integrated into the eventual output of the web-sig (probably not for 2.4).
