This deals with a feature request of parsing an IPv6 URL according to standards. The patch is pretty complete and we have good test coverage too. Is it okay to include this in Python 2.7 b2 release? It would be a worthy addition.

  1. The ultimate decision on that is with the release manager (i.e. Benjamin)
  2. My personal recommendation is to allow it: while it is a new feature, it is a feature that doesn't change any API.
