*slaps head* Yes, Aahz is correct, and I for one should have known better: see this thread, for example, where I not only defend the use of old style classes but explicitly stated that they *weren't* deprecated. http://groups.google.com.au/group/comp.lang.python/browse_thread/thread/c33c458568b1027c/52fabc6398a566b6?lnk=st&q=steven+aahz+new+style+classes+&rnum=1#52fabc6398a566b6 Mea culpa. -- Steven. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
