Yes. This is exactly what I meant to say. Maybe there are 2 entirely different use-cases for adaptation, and we shouldn't be trying to confuse the two, or conflate them into one system? I am going to go have a look at PEAK next, to see why there are so many stateless adapters there. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
