Requests is an ISC Licensed HTTP library, written in Python, for human beings. This thing is actually awesome. If you haven't checked it out, you should. (ebuild will arrive soon)

Just to keep you guys posted. I'm getting close to a 0.9.0 version bump with a working test suite. The issue lies in the suite requiring httpbin, which has this pretty requirements.txt: https://github.com/kennethreitz/httpbin/blob/master/requirements.txt I'll churn away at it.

It is much better. The same script now works well. I see 0.10 is now in portage so shouldn't this bug be closed now?
No, because the ebuild in gentoo-x86 still doesn't handle tests.
FYI, I have submitted a patch so that the test suite is actually included in the pypi tarballs. https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/pull/528
Just committed 0.12.1 with test suite, but see https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/issues/596 for anyone interested.
