This sounds like a mess that I would not touch. Unless something needs to be fixed, I wouldn't switch these to use super() - I'd leave them using explicit parent calls. However, I would acknowledge somewhere that this will cause Top.__init__() to be called twice on the same object. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
