To begin with, I think we need to restrict ourselves to SOCK_STREAM. There’s no need to get specific about address family I don’t think. As for unconnected sockets, I think I’d like to delay that concern unless someone wants to propose the API. > In the not-so-distant future SRV-ID validation will become relevant.

The advantage of this API is that it would be extensible. We can extend it as needed over time, we don’t need to shove everything in at once. So I’m inclined to want to defer this until we see what the implementations actually do. > For hostname validation we should also define how we are going to deal > with encodings.

I think you have a better idea of what is required here than I do: do you have a suggestion? _______________________________________________ Security-SIG mailing list Security-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/security-sig
