1) Documenting the timeout behavior and describing the above hack in the httplib documentation. 2) Modify HTTPConnection.connect() to set the timeout on the socket object after it has been created (using the same timeout as given on the HTTPConnection constructor). 3) Adding (optional) timeout parameters to HTTPConnection.getresponse() and HTTPResponse.read() (and possibly other functions with the same problem). 4) A combination of 2) and 3). Any thoughts on this? BTW: Once I figure out how, I wouldn't mind submitting a patch for either 2), 3) or 4), but personally I don't like 1).
FYI there's an open bug about this (or at least related to it):
