Although it's not a very obvious spelling, particularly to the casual reader who may not be familiar with the intricacies of classes and metaclasses. I don't think it would hurt to have it available as a __future__ import as well. There's also the advantage that all of a module's future assumptions could then be documented uniformly in one place, i.e. in a __future__ import at the top. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
