urllib.request.urlopen() now always produces a context manager (either a HTTPResponse or addinfourl object). The example for contextlib.closing still uses urllib.request.urlopen as an example for the context manager wrapper, see https://docs.python.org/3/library/contextlib.html#contextlib.closing This is confusing users that now expect the object not to be a context manager, see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26619404/with-and-closing-of-files-in-python Can a different example be chosen?
