Ok, I'm new to python, and I'm trying to come to grips with a few things. Got lots of years of experience with Java and asp/aspx, etc. Trying to relate Python's behavior to what I already know.
You may find the following a useful overview of how class & instance attributes work:

(Keep in mind that I'm only considering 'normal' attributes in that message - it covers the behaviour in most cases, but not quite all. When things stop behaving as you expect based on this description, the relevant word is almost certainly "descriptors")
Cheers, Nick.
