+For various reasons, urllib.parse and its Python 2 predecessor urlparse
+are not compliant with current Internet standards. As stated in
+Lib/urllib/parse.py:
+
+ RFC 3986 is considered the current standard and any future changes to
+ urlparse module should conform with it. The urlparse module is
+ currently not entirely compliant with this RFC due to defacto
+ scenarios for parsing, and for backward compatibility purposes, some
+ parsing quirks from older RFCs are retained.
+
+This module aims to provide fully RFC 3986 compliant replacements for
+the most commonly used functions found in urllib.parse. It also
+includes functions for distinguishing between the different forms of
+URIs and URI references, and for conveniently creating URIs from their
+individual components.
