I think the alternative for python 2.5 may be not to use urllib2 and set socket timeouts directly, this is supported from python 2.3 (basic implementation: https://bitbucket.org/kmike/vkontakte/src/e89d4cb94902/vkontakte/http.py ). Feels like a hack though. >
@Mikhail That has been discussed in the ticket's comments and patches setting the default socket timeout have not made it so far (because of concurrency issues and the potential of breaking unrelated (not necessarily django-) code). @Russell @Jannis Thanks for the responses! So I'll keep up with the timeout argument and write the tests. If we find a great solution for <=2.5, we can stop raising warnings. But the design is clear then :) Best, Fabian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
