.. sectionauthor:: Moshe Zadka <moshez@users.sourceforge.net>
+.. note::
+ The :mod:`urllib2` module has been split across several modules in
+ Python 3.0 named :mod:`urllib.request` and :mod:`urllib.error`.
+ The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting
+ your sources to 3.0.
+
+
The :mod:`urllib2` module defines functions and classes which help in opening
URLs (mostly HTTP) in a complex world --- basic and digest authentication,
redirections, cookies and more.
