I remember the recent discussion about such matters... but I don't understand its dangers fully still. I assume __slots__ may be removed in Python 3.0, but maybe "experts" need it now an then. Or maybe a "experts only" warning can be added to the docs. I think that the official python documentation has to become more like wikipedia, where people can fix it more easely, so I can add such warning into the text. The standard python docs on the Python site can also enjoy a good amount of usage examples, one example for each thing shown (like in the really good Delphi manuals). (I think an unofficial timid example of python docs is being already recently) Bye, bearophile -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
