New submission from Vladimir Rutsky:

re module documentation says:

 Match Objects always have a boolean value of :const:`True`, so that you can 
test
   whether e.g. :func:`match` resulted in a match with a simple if statement.

which is confusing - matched objects have boolean value True, doesn't matched - 
False.
