I think you've got it backwards; the godawful MixedCase style goes back to Smalltalk, which couldn't use underscores in identifiers because it had assigned some other purpose to that character. That it was picked up by Java is not evidence of anything other than Java's Vogon-like tastelessness, and of course C# uses it since C# is basically a Java dialect. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
