I agree. Comparing values from different Enums could cause a lot of hard to find bugs. On the other hand, simply checking in `__cmp__` what Enum both values belong to (since they do have a `enum` attribute) should allow us to avoid cross-comparing instead of just raising a TypeError. It's not very intuitive behavior IMHO. Just my 2 cents. -- Fábio Santos _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
