Well Apple has defined what they want to be defined right now, and they expect most other attributes to be application-specific. The same situation is out there for UTIs. If you felt strongly about the need for an obvious way for everyone to name things then you could pretty easily make it known to the development community. If a couple people pick it up, you'd probably have a de facto standard pretty quickly. -bob _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
