# "Names and Addresses, URIs, URLs, URNs, URCs", at
# http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Addressing/Overview.html

# See also the HTTP spec (from which the error codes are derived):
# "HTTP - Hypertext Transfer Protocol", at
# http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Protocols/

# Related standards and specs:
# - RFC1808: the "relative URL" spec. (authoritative status)
# - RFC1738 - the "URL standard". (authoritative status)
# - RFC1630 - the "URI spec". (informational status)

# The object returned by URLopener().open(file) will differ per
# protocol.  All you know is that is has methods read(), readline(),
# readlines(), fileno(), close() and info().  The read*(), fileno()
# and close() methods work like those of open files. 
# The info() method returns a mimetools.Message object which can be
# used to query various info about the object, if available.
# (mimetools.Message objects are queried with the getheader() method.)
