Isn't that what Seo's Community Edition is for?   Obviously not the official MSFT edition, but it certainly does the trick.

Sorry, I wasn't clear.  I was referring to this for 1.1.  Or are you saying that some part of the licensing / legalistic stuff that goes on (invisibly to many of us) means that you can't put any "outsider contributions" into what you ship?

>>Originally we were trying to implement "_socket" instead of "socket".  We ran into one problem with this: the standard socket.py module has an implicit dependency upon CPython's reference counting garbage collector (for implementing dup).  We considered a hack to make this work but ultimately rejected it in favor of implementing "socket" instead replacing the standard Python module.   Unfortunately makefile didn't make it - and that looks like the same thing for ssl (it's present in CPythons socket but not _socket).
