.mro() is a metamethod, it is a method of the metaclass, not of the class. So you can override it without problems, and still access it as type.mro(cls). For more about metamethods see http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-pymeta2/index.html Michele Simionato -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
