<thinking-out-loud> Override the mutators - or just wrap them in a decorator. But I don't know if it's "simpler". And FWIW, it won't catch modifications of contained objects - only modifications of the list itself. So you'd also need to wrap contained objects in an object that would itself detect all changes and notify the container. Err... Looks like equality is the way to go. </thinking-out-loud> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
