I'd like to do all of this eventually, but was waiting for Python > 2.2 for various reasons which I described before and don't entirely remember. Essentially, I'd like to see these new OOP features stabilize a bit more, with less special cases. There was also an indication from Guido that future syntax could change. I'm not alone in this opinion. I think Tavis Rudd has also played with these features but decided to postpone embracing them. So no one is currently working on this right now. If you'd like to, then feel free. If you don't, it's likely I'll work on it at some point, but there is no time frame. Or your company can fund me, and I can start on it today. :-) If you're looking just to modify MiddleKit, that would be the easiest and we could support both styles via Settings.config as you mentioned. One of my biggest concerns in all of this would be writing a script that converts existing projects (and maybe even the Webware code) to the new "properties" style. I have substantial work already created with Webware, as do others. -Chuck _______________________________________________________________ Sponsored by: ThinkGeek at http://www.ThinkGeek.com/ _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
