In http://docs.python.org/release/3.1.3/library/ssl.html
You will find a link at the bottom named "Introducing SSL and Certificates using OpenSSL", it's a broken link.

The server may be down or not exist, the only version I can find is http://web.archive.org/web/20090429050651/http://old.pseudonym.org/ssl/wwwj-index.html

Please consider to replace the link to the new one.

I would simply remove the link, or point it to a similar document
