Summary: urllib2 raises exception with non-200 success codes.

Initial Comment:
If a server returns a code other than 200, specifically 201 
(Created), urllib2.urlopen will raise an HTTPError exception. I ran 
into this while implementing an Atom API client, which solicits 201 
responses from the server when submitting a blog post.

  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/urllib2.py", line 129, in urlopen
    return _opener.open(url, data)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/urllib2.py", line 326, in open
    '_open', req)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/urllib2.py", line 306, in _call_chain
    result = func(*args)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/urllib2.py", line 901, in http_open
    return self.do_open(httplib.HTTP, req)

    return self.parent.error('http', req, fp, code, msg, hdrs)

http_error_default
    raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp)
