Hi, all.

I am investigating problem with Gems and proxy authorization and I have
question about open-uri code.
To be precise code from OpenURI.open_loop(uri, options) (Current version
from CVS)

    when :proxy
      opt_proxy =3D options.fetch(:proxy)
      proxy_user =3D nil
      proxy_pass =3D nil

proxy option mostly come from ENV and could contain information for basic
authorization: username and password. Something like this
http://anatol:pwd@www.proxy.com:8080/
and right way is parse this string and put proxy_user to anatol, proxy_pass
to pwd and proxy_url to http://www.proxy.com:8080/

The same with code a bit below
    when true
      find_proxy =3D lambda {|u| pxy =3D u.find_proxy; pxy ? [pxy, nil, nil=
] :
nil}

It should be
    when true
      find_proxy =3D lambda {|u| pxy =3D u.find_proxy; pxy ?
parse_proxy_and_find_authorization_info(pxy) : nil}


Is it logical??
