There are significant changes of semantics according to TFA, for example: > Default charset of ISO-8859-1 has been removed > The 204, 404, 405, 414 and 501 status codes are now cachable. > The Location header can now contain relative uri's as well as fragment identifiers

All three are things pretty much all HTTP/1.1 clients have done for over a decade. It's incompatible with RFC2616, yes — but not with implementations of "HTTP/1.1".

Hopefully, they'll reconsider now. https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/issues/1737 https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/issues/1737 https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/issues/2086 https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/issues/2086
