New submission from
Jim Jewett
:
Under the http protocol, any 2xx response is OK.
urllib.py and urllib2.py hardcoded only response 200 (the most common).
http://bugs.python.org/issue912845 added 206 as acceptable to urllib2, but
not any other 20x responses. (It also didn't fix urllib.)
Suggested for 2.6, as it does change behavior.
(Also see duplicate http://bugs.python.org/issue971965 which I will try to
close after opening this. )
