test_urllib2net.py uses ftp://ftp.debian.org/ for testing FTP support in urllib. But Debian just announced shutting down its public FTP services.

I had started taking some action on it recently: https://github.com/python/pythondotorg/issues/1069 

I verified that only one test module is affected and rest of our ftp.debian.org references are examples/docstrings that will need to be updated eventually too.

This has been fixed here - https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/2755/files

Python docs demonstrate the usage of ftplib using ftp.debian.org.
I think, it is perfectly reasonable and welcome thing to do so.

https://docs.python.org/3/library/ftplib.html

Closing this ticket as fixed.  I will add some minor improvement to the documentation usage though.
