[Python-modules-team] python-requests backport

[Daniele Tricoli]

Hello Julien and Yaroslav,

thanks for remindig this: I was wondering about backporting requests but as 
noted by Yaroslav we have to investigate how many packages will break.

I will be happy to work on this, but since I'm not a DD (yet ;) and this is 
the first time I contront with this kind of situation I was wondering if ftp-
masters will allow breckage in our stable release. Is a NEWS entry enough? :)

My plan is to backport python-urllib3 and python-requests and start to 
indvestigate how many package will break.

httpie will certainly break, see #707994; I pinged Bartosz Fenski on IRC some 
time ago, but he did not reply. 

Many thanks for your comments. If I forgot somthing please tell me!

Kind regards,
