timeoutsocket.py mirror?

[skilpat]

Can anybody provide a mirror for this module? The original URL seems to
be down. I have been looking for over an hour, and every single
resource that uses it links to the timo-tasi.org site to download it.

Thanks!

FWIW, Python 2.3+ has the timeout functionality built in, so
timeoutsocket.py is no longer needed. See the documentation on
socket.Socket.settimeout().

Google returns several sites which link directly to their own copy of
timeoutsocket.py. Just google for that name, alone... (I suppose you
already searched with Google, but maybe included the word "python",
which doesn't help in this case.)

Or you could try the Wayback Machine, which seems to have archived the
relevant page:

http://web.archive.org/web/20040214101340/www.timo-tasi.org/python/timeoutsocket.py

(Give it time, it has to retrieve it from some massive offline storage
or something. Might take a minute or two to come up.)

I'll leave it up to you to figure out which one is the most recent version.

Unfortunately I am stuck with Python 2.2 (I don't think the sysadmins
like me), so that's not an option. Thanks though.

Wow that is pretty stupid of me. Yeah I was searching "python
timeoutsocket.py" and that doesn't give any good results Thanks
guys!
