Also, we are not changing anything here and we are not considering removing descriptors from special method lookup. This is the way it has been for a long time for code that *checks* for special method capability. As RDM and I have both said, changing that would break backward compatibility. As I've already explained, I also think it is wrong. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23990> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
