RobotsParser parse a "Disallow: ?" rule as a deny all, but this is a valid rule that should be interpreted as "Disallow: /?*" or "Disallow: /*?*"

Can you provide a link to documentation showing that "Disallow: ?" shouldn't be the same as deny all?  Thanks!

I can't find a documentation about it, but all of the robots.txt checkers I find behave like this. You can test on this site: http://www.eskimoz.fr/robots.txt, I believe that this is how it's implemented now in most parsers ?

I removed almost all messages of this issue since most of them looked list SPAM. I also blocked user accounts who posted SPAM. If it was a mistake, contact me.

This is the Python bug tracker, not a forum to ask questions how to use Python, or to report bugs in your website.

Multiple comments were written in French, whereas this bug tracker is in English.

I even hesitate to close the issue since it got too many SPAM comments.

I restored one non-spam message from the OP that was deleted.

Changing to enhancement because this is not a bug (i.e., deviation from documentation).

I don't know enough about this to have a view on whether this enhancement request should be accepted.

I removed two comments: none of the mentioned URL contains a "Disallow: ?" rule and the comments didn't add any value to this issue. It looks like regular spam (SEO).
