Hi James, unfortunatly, there has been no improvements on this topic yet. I've very few time to spent on pylint, which is mainly spent on code review (Torsten Marek from Google beeing mostly the one making improvments to pylint these days, let's thank him once again btw) and release. I also think this would greatly improve things and should be high priority, though it needs a few days work and deep understanding of pylint inference system. Maybe Boris who will work on pylint as a GSoC project would be a good candidate :) -- Sylvain Thénault, LOGILAB, Paris (01.45.32.03.12) - Toulouse (09.54.03.55.76) Formations Python, Debian, Méth.
