[Pythonmac-SIG] For your eyes only: MacPython 2.3 final

[Chris Lee]

curl is ftp isn't it?  Well I have a ftp proxy set up but it must use  
passive mode.  Is there an environment setting for that?
The help page isn't all that explicit in giving help here and the ADC  
technote it points to is designed to help people who know all about  
setting environment variables already.  I know you all are busy but a  
lot of people like me will need it to work out of the box (with maybe a  
few well described and easy to handle tweaks) in which case something  
like this needs to be fixed.

Cheers
Chris
