As mentioned on the issue tracker I'm not convinced that your patch is a good solution going forward. Rather than basing the test on svn.python.org, which can change again in the future, we should use the domain we have specifically reserved for stdlib tests, namely pythontest.net and get this set up in a way so that we can run SSL tests again. I can help with getting SSL certificates for pythontest.net, since I'm managing the PSF SSL certificates (well, trying to keep those managed anyway ;-) - I was not involved in the choice of new CA for svn.python.org): https://wiki.python.org/psf/PSF%20SSL%20Certificates Regarding which branches to apply the final fix, others have already chimed in. Essentially, any branch which we'll need to run tests on in the foreseeable future will need to be fixed, since the change in svn.python.org's SSL setup (the expired certificate which caused the tests to fail was replaced with a new one from a different CA, again causing tests to fail) affects all released test suites. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Experts (#1, Jan 07 2016) >>> Python Projects, Coaching and Consulting ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> Python Database Interfaces ... http://products.egenix.com/ >>> Plone/Zope Database Interfaces ... http://zope.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: We implement business ideas - efficiently in both time and costs ::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
