Hello,


Your patch about SSLContext is great! But what can we do about python 2.x?

I understand that we have to keep backward compatibility but something has to be done for improving current situation, even Paypal API (*) recommends using urllib.urlopen() to check sensitive things on HTTPS :(

If backporting SSLContext into python 2.x is not an option, what do you think about a DeprecationWarning at runtime?

Thanks,

    And even the popular Django paypal module uses urllib2
