RFC 3986 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt) says: For consistency, percent-encoded octets in the ranges of ALPHA (%41-%5A and %61-%7A), DIGIT (%30-%39), hyphen (%2D), period (%2E), underscore (%5F), or tilde (%7E) should not be created by URI producers and, when found in a URI, should be decoded to their corresponding unreserved characters by URI normalizers. From python documentation talking about urllib.quote() Example: quote('/~connolly/') yields '/%7econnolly/'. I think ~ should be added to the safe characters of quote function

Example: quote('/~connolly/') yields '/%7econnolly/'.

I think ~ should be added to the safe characters of quote function
