My question: Could the old classes be treated in a new Python treated as new classes with "implicit" base object? (I know the Zen... ;-) Example: I use usually a very simple classes. When I add "(object)" to my class definitions, the code continues to works fine -- plus I have new features to use. Why this cannot be done automatically? What could be broken in the old code if it was threated so? Thanks for explanation, pepr
