[New-bugs-announce] [issue35939] Remove urllib.parse._splittype from mimetypes.guess_type

[Dong-hee Na]

New submission from Dong-hee Na <donghee.na92 at gmail.com>:

Since urllib.parse.splittype is deprecated on 3.8.
In the future urllib.parse._splittype also should be removed.

I found that mimetypes.guess_type uses urllib.parse._splittype and
it can be replaced and it also looks like solve the issue mentioned on https://github.com/python/cpython/blame/e42b705188271da108de42b55d9344642170aa2b/Lib/test/test_urllib2.py#L749

And I checked that all unit tests are passed when

I'd like to work on this issue if this proposal is accepted!
Always thanks
