Re: [Pywikipedia-l] Rewrite pywikipedia out-of-the-box error(TypeError: a float is required in http.py)

Matias: I can tell you that the DeprecationWarnings only happen under Python 2.6, not 2.5, and they are harmless (although annoying); httplib2 needs to be updated for 2.6, but it appears to be abandonware. I'm not sure about the TypeError; will investigate further and see if I can reproduce it. It seems a very odd error on the face of it; why would a "raise" statement cause an exception saying "a float is required"?
