New submission from Barry A. Warsaw:
The docs[1] say:
.. function:: urlopen(url, data=None[, timeout], *, cafile=None, capath=None,
cadefault=True)
The code[2] says:
def urlopen(url, data=None, timeout=socket._GLOBAL_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT,
*, cafile=None, capath=None, cadefault=False):
Obviously, the code cannot be changed in a stable release, and whether the
default should be changed for 3.4 is a separate discussion. For now, the docs
should be fixed to reflect the code.
