A user contribution

My name is Paul Hiemstra and I am a PhD student at the university of Utrecht in the Netherlands.

I wanted to read a WMS server that was protected by a password (Apache BasicAuthentication?). I modified the wms.py (owslib 0.2.0) to make this possible. The call to the WMS would look something like: 

  from owslib.wms import WebMapService
  wms = WebMapService(url, username, password)

Patch accepted and committed in r1092 with modifications. Instead of globally registering an opener, I am binding the service's _open attribute to the opener's open method, and doing it at once in init instead of for each request.
